This prefabricated building, constructed of a timber frame clad in sheet metal, was apparently built in 1885 and pre-dates the stone building to which it is attached, having been used as the church itself for 10 years. It might not last much longer though as flats may be built on the site. I had assumed this building was a later extension to the church, but further info is below. http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/290062/details/motherwell+avon+street+church+of+the+holy+trinity+church+hall/
