- In 1865 the firm of Hill & Sons built a two manual organ for Saint Peter's Church, 880 Argyle Street in Glasgow. The instrument was expanded by Harrison & Harrison in 1904 with a Bourdon 16' on the pedal and an Oboe 8' on Swell. In 1951 the parish merged with Saint Martin's and the church was renamed the Church of Anderston & Saint Peter's. The church building was closed in 1968 and then demolished.
- The organ was placed in Saint Bride's Church by James MacKenzie in 1972.
