Former North Church of St. Andrew, Aberdeen

Formerly the North Church, Aberdeen Arts Centre lies on King Street and is regarded as the finest work of local architect John Smith (1781 - 1852). Built 1829-30, the building benefits from a portico supported in Ionic columns and reflects Smith's great attention to detail. Internally little of Smith's interiors remain following the conversion to the Arts Centre, incorporating a theatre and meetings rooms, in the 1950s.
