Description
At the centre of the local community for over 100 years, this stately church recently reached a wider audience in the film Sunshine on Leith and regular television broadcasts. See the new sanctuary within a sanctuary and welcoming entrance vestibule.
This is a busy building housing worship and community events for the local area. Visit our sanctuary within a sanctuary and our new welcoming entrance vestibule. Come to gather - stay to grow.
Founded in 1899, Broomhill Church was extended in 1903 to accommodate an expanding population in the Broomhill area. The population continues to expand and Broomhill Church is excited to be at the heart of the community. The church and halls are in use every day from toddler groups, dancing classes, to badminton club, coffee mornings and youth organisations. Broomhill Church wants to welcome you and your families. There truly are activities for all ages and we are reaching up and reaching out to the local community and beyond. Journey with us as we evolve and adapt our historic buildings for use in modern times. From small beginnings in 1899 to the present day, the immense dedication and generosity of many people have given us a building to be proud of. You can tour our new smaller sanctuary within the sanctuary, see a showcase of vibrant scenes from everyday life in the building on our new screens. You also have a rare chance to see our eye-catching pulpit falls up close, embroidered by the renowned Hannah Frew Paterson in 2000. Fun Facts: Our warm and welcoming sanctuary played a walk-on part in the 2013 movie "Sunshine on Leith". Our previous minister played himself in an episode of Taggart. Our services have been televised seven times over recent years, and we have also appeared in radio broadcasts. In 2017, Broomhill Church united with Hyndland Parish Church and began an exciting new chapter. Both Church buildings remain in use and the Hyndland building (Kingsborough Gardens Sanctuary) is also part of Glasgow Doors Open Days this year.
