Summary

Flinders Street, north side from a point near Roper Street. The Post Office clock tower can be seen on the corner of Franklin Street and King William Street. The church on the northern side of Flinders Street in the middle of the photograph is the United Presbyterian Church built in 1863-65. It was a large church with a fine tower with an unusually shaped spire. In 1929 the Free Church on North Terrace/Pulteney Street amalgamated with United Presbyterian Church to form Scots Church. Flinders Street Church was used for morning worship until the property was sold to YMCA. The blue stone saved from the Flinders Street property was used as facings in the North Terrace site. The organ and stained glass windows from the Flinders Street Church were incorporated into the North Terrace Church.
