Ecclesiastical building no longer in use as such. Part of the Edinburgh New Town A Group. John Dick Peddie, the probable architect of 24 Broughton Street, built the Trinity Duke Street Parish Church in Glasgow, 1857; similar to the former building but grander and more ornamental. 24 Broughton Street was built for the Reverend Edward Irving. The Irvingites moved to the Bellevue Reformed Baptist Church (former Catholic Apostolic Church, Rowand Anderson, 1872) in 1876 (see separate listing).
