The parish church of St. Andrew was opened for service in 1784 and 's the oldest church in the New Town of Edinburgh. The main part is unusual in shape, being a regular ellipse. In the front is a handsome porch in the Grecian style with a spire that carries the oldest church bells in the city. Tradition declares that the peal of these bells, together with the sound of the fishwives crying their wares in George Street and St. Andrew Square, suggested to Nathaniel Gow the well-known tune of ' Caller Herrin' '.
The church has long and honoured traditions. At the beginning of the last century the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland sat there. It was accordingly the scene of the Disruption in 1843, when many of the members marched from the building and formed the Free Church of Scotland. This breach has been happily healed through the great reunion in 1929. Many distinguished and famous
Scots have worshipped in the church, among them being the late Earl Haig.
