THE CHURCH OF
SCOTLAND
Situated at 121
George Street are the central offices of The Church of
Scotland.
The Scandinavian-influenced designed buildings, built
from 1909 – 1911, are the work of Scottish architect Sydney
Mitchell (1856 – 1930)
Known informally by its Scots language name, The Kirk,
The Church of Scotland is a Presbyterian church.
Having grown out of the Scottish Reformation - the
formal break with the Papacy of 1560 – the church
traces its roots back to the beginnings of Christianity
in Scotland.
