Built by: Richard Smith (1902)


In 1902, Richard Smith & Co. built an organ for Whitehill United Free Church in Dennistoun, Glasgow. The church was later named Dennistoun Blackfriars Parish Church. The building closed in 2006 and was then partly demolished and partly converted into apartments, with the facade remaining unchanged. The spire of the tower has been removed. The organ was sold to the Everlasting Arms Ministry, a Christian group whose meetinghouse is not far from Blackfriars Church.
