The stone building with the tower is not a religious building but rather a textile mill for jute spinning. The current building dates from 1874 by architects McLaren and Aitken. It replaces an earlier building that burnt down. The mill is of fireproof construction except for timber roof trusses. An engine house is in the yard but I am not sure I could identify it as such. It is now converted to flats, a pub and a night club.
