- In 1902-1903 leverde James Jepson Binns een nieuw orgel voor Saint Thomas' Junction Road Parish Church, Great Junction Street, Leith, Edinburgh. Adviseur was Alfred Hollins, die het op 29 januari 1903 ook voor het eerst bespeelde tijdens een concert. In 1996-1998 is het orgel gerestaureerd door de Schotse orgelbouwer Jamie Lightoller.
- De kerk in Edinburgh werd in 2009 gesloten. In 2010 is het orgel door de firma Andrew Cooper Organ Builders overgeplaatst naar de Saint Stephen's Church in Westminster. Het orgel verkeert geheel in de oorspronkelijke staat.
- Het kerkgebouw in Edinburgh, dat in 1824 werd gebouwd, is verkocht en is tegenwoordig in gebruik als het Mohiuddin Jamia Masjid & Education Centre.
