Description

First opened in 1908, this is the last intact example of a Central Methodist Hall in Scotland. This imposing building is located opposite Paisley Abbey and was designed by architects Watson and Salmond in the Free Renaissance style.

Paisley Photographic Society is the oldest photographic club in Scotland, founded in 1857, and it regularly meets in the Methodist Central Hall. See an exhibition of photographic prints by club members - you might be inspired to join.
