The 19th-century neoclassical building now houses a Hindu temple, representing modern-day Glasgow at its most multicultural. This building was originally known as the Queen's Room. The building was eventually converted into the Om Hindu Temple. While almost the entire interior has been remodeled with several niches for Hindu deities as well as worship space, the exterior remains close to its original specifications.

Bhagwan Ganesh, Shiva-Parvati, Maa Durga, Ram Darbar, Sai Mandir, Baba Balaknath, Hanuman Ji, Radha Krishna, Vishwakarma, Santoshi Mata, Venkateswara, Kali Mata, Navagraha, Gayatri Devi, Maa Saraswati and mata Lakshmi idols enshrined here for worship in the temple premises.

The building is a listed building, with the main change visible without entering the building being its doors, which follow the heavy sculpture of the walls, but instead feature elephants, peacocks, Om and other symbols of Hinduism. People of the Hindu community say that this is the best holy place for Hindus in Glasgow, Scotland.

In 1850 it was made for the merchant David Bell and in the references included by the sculptors, Bell and Wilson themselves appear as the two statues, as does Bell's wife representing the Greek goddess Minerva. Mossman and Buchan's mentors Stevenson Dalglish and Robert Hutchison were also added in for good measure.
