From its towering campanile to its intimate cloistered courtyard, a little bit of rural Italy in the heart of literary Morningside. St Peter�s was built especially for Father John Gray (former aesthetic poet and associate of Mallarm�, Rimbaud, Verlaine, Wilde and Beardsley) by his literary patron Marc-Andr� Raffalovich, in 1907.� The work of Sir Robert Lorimer (champion of the �Arts and Crafts� movement), this Grade A listed building remains a repository of exquisite metalwork, woodcarving, paintings, statuary and stained glass.
