Old photograph of the Episcopal Church in Colinton located South West of the centre of Edinburgh, Scotland. The Scottish Episcopal Church has existed for around three hundred years, but there has only been an Episcopal Church in Colinton since the end of the nineteenth century. The Church grew out of the Mission to Colinton, which was founded in 1883 to serve a community which had been growing rapidly since the arrival of the railway; work on a church building began in 1888, and the building was finally consecrated and the first Rector appointed in 1893.
