- Het orgel in Coldside Parish Church in Dundee is gebouwd door de firma Forster & Andrews in 1872. Het werd gebouwd voor Clarement Parish Church (North Claremont Street) in Glasgow. Al in 1900 is het orgel verkocht, waarna het is overgeplaatst naar de Wellpark Parish Church (165 Duke Street, Dennistoun) in Glasgow door Richard Smith. Clarement Parish Church is in 1963 gesloten en afgebroken. Wellpark Parish Chuch is in 1949 gesloten en afgebroken. Maar het orgel heeft dit alles overleefd. Het werd in 1949 gedemonteerd en is na een revisie door Andrew Watt in 1953 overgeplaatst naar Clepington Parish Church in Dundee.
- In Clepington Church stond tot 1953 een klein orgel van de firma Walcker & Cie. met acht stemmen en zonder pedaal. Het Forster & Andrews-orgel is veel groter. In 2004 is de parochie gefuseerd met Fairmuir Parish tot de Coldside Parish. Enkele jaren werden beide kerkgebouwen beurtelings gebruikt voor de eredienst, maar na 24 april 2011 is Fairmuir Parish Church gesloten en verkocht. Clepington Church kreeg nu de naam van de parochie: Coldside Parish Church.
