Scope and Content Gatepiers from the former Dean Studio, Belford Road, Dean, Edinburgh The Dean Studio was converted in 1890 from the former Dean Free Church of 1844 as a centre of the Arts and Crafts movement in Edinburgh, and housed both classrooms and individual studios. These gatepiers of the Dean Studio are all that survive today after the building was demolished in the 1950s. The former church was used by the architect Robert Lorimer in 1909 to build a full-size model of his proposed Thistle Chapel at St Giles, and by Phoebe Anna Traquair, who had an individual studio, to make the enamelled coats of arms for the chapel.
