The church which stood in the Gallowgate has been demolished and
the services are now conducted in the church hall in
David Street junction of the
Gallowgate. This is the old church hall the Boys' Brigade met in.

Looking up David Street to the Gallowgate, in the background you
can see the Whitevale Street high rise flats.
There is a lot of new housing building work going in David Street on
both sides
