Scope and Content Lamp bracket, the former St Bernard's Parish Church, now Stockbridge Parish Church, Saxe-Coburg Street, Stockbridge, Edinburgh St Bernard's Church is in a Classical style by James Milne, the architect who designed most of the Raeburn Estate as well as the original plans for Saxe-Coburg Place at the end of the street. The church opened in 1823 as St Cuthbert's Chapel of Ease. This ornate iron lamp bracket, decorated with scrolls, is attached to the wall over the main door of the church, and was designed to hold a gas lamp. The church has a very simple interior with a U-plan gallery supported on slim iron columns. The acoustics are excellent, and the church is the venue for the Edinburgh Competition, a music competition for children, held every year in June. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
