Location: Manse Road, Bargeddie, G69 6UB
Map Reference:NS 691 647

Built in 1876, the church is prominently visible from the M8/M73 interchange.

Although the Church has a Glasgow Post Code, I think it's Lanarkshire rather than Glasgow.

Various attempts to get close ups of the inscriptions have failed miserably!
