Built in 1784 as the first church of the New Town, St Andrew’s Church was designed by Major Andrew Frazer and the unusual elliptical plan, the first in Britain, responded to the restricted site after Sir Laurence Dundas built his house on the intended site in St Andrew’s Square on the George Street axis.

The Church boasts a fine Georgian interior, especially the Adam-style ceiling, notable glass (Alf Webster and Douglas Strachan), Wells Kennedy organ (1984), original peel of bells (restored 2006), and interpretation panels.
