history |
Juniper Green, St Andrew's Free Church originated at the Disruption. The ministers of Colinton and Currie both remained in the Church of Scotland, so that Free Church adherents from both parishes formed Juniper Green, with a church building midway between the two, for a congregation known originally as Colinton and Currie. The name change came in 1880, when the church was rebuilt and enlarged. It passed successively to the United Free Church and the Church of Scotland, in the latter case as Juniper Green St Andrew's, which linked with Juniper Green St Margaret's as Juniper Green in 1974. The Church of Scotland charge was in the presbytery of Edinburgh and the synod of Lothian and Tweeddale. |
