Former Woodside North Church
Originally (1836) Woodside Parish Church and thought to be designed by Archibald Simpson. After the 1843 Disruption, the Free Church took possession of the building after various legal skirmishes. In 1900 it was renamed Hilton United Free Church and much later it became Woodside North (Church of Scotland), just a few metres from Woodside South, and was then sympathetically converted to flats in the 1980s. B-listed: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/sc-19975-clifton-manor-352-clifton-road-woodside- . As seen from Queen Street.

Woodside Parish Church
This handsome Italianate church with tower, viewed from the south-east, was designed by Archibald Simpson in ca. 1846 and is B-listed: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/sc-19976-woodside-parish-church-former-woodside-so . Just a few years earlier, Simpson had designed the first Woodside Parish Church (see: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3424220 ), which was taken over by the Free Church after the Disruption. This was known for a while as Woodside South, until the former free church (Woodside North), just a few metres away, was converted to flats.

Former Woodside Congregational Church...
...on Great Northern Road (the A96). The building has been derelict for years and the only inhabitants are pigeons, who enter through gaping holes in the roof.
