Fotheringay Centre, Pollokshields Plan your perfect Wedding Ceremony
The beautiful red sandstone Fotheringay Centre, stands in the leafy suburb of Pollokshields.
Situated on the corner of Beaton Road and Fotheringay Road, it is the perfect setting for a quiet, low key event.
The church opened in the early 1900s and was acquired from the Pollokshields United Reform Church and restored by Hutchesons’ Grammar School.
It was officially opened by the school in 2004, and houses a large auditorium and lecture theatre.
Our beautiful Auditorium can accommodate up to 200 seated guests for your wedding ceremony. There is also the adjacent Georgeson Room, which could be used for a small drinks reception. The Auditorium opens out onto a private garden to the front, where guests can mingle after the ceremony. A beautiful spot on a sunny afternoon before heading to your chosen Reception venue.
The Fotheringay Auditorium offers you a blank canvas for you to create your perfect wedding ceremony. Our neutral decor, with the traditional stained glass windows makes for an impressive back drop. You are free to decorate the hall to your own taste, for your special day.
The Fotheringay is also very close to Maxwell Park, the perfect place to have those memorable wedding photos taken.
We are in a beautiful location on the southside of Glasgow, just 15 minutes by car from Glasgow City Centre. It is also easily accessed by train and motorway.
If you would like to come and see the Fotheringay Centre, we would be delighted to give you a tour. Please call Karen Peterkin on 0141 433 4466 or e-mail peterkink@hutchesons.org.
