Part of the former St Columba's Episcopal Church, seen from Clyde Street. The church has been unused since at least 2004 and has been subject to vandalism over the years. Parts of the roof collapsed sometime between 2017 and 2019 (based on Street View images) and it continues to deteriorate. The building is on the Buildings at Risk Register https://www.buildingsatrisk.org.uk/details/904186.
