Scope and Content Cluny Parish Church, Braid Road, Morningside, Edinburgh, from the south-west Cluny Parish Church, designed by Hippolyte Jean Blanc in 1889-90, opened as St Matthew's Parish Church in 1890 on the corner of Braid Road and Cluny Gardens. In 1974 it united with the former South Morningside Parish Church to become Cluny Parish Church. The church, built in red sandstone, stands high on a grassy terraced corner site. The building, with most of the detail concentrated in the west gable, is cruciform, with nave aisles and a slender Gothic spire on the centre of the roof. The congregation of St Matthew's Parish Church had previously used a small corrugated-iron church, originally a 'mission station' of Morningside Parish Church, which was built in 1883 in Cluny Avenue at a cost of £650. It was subsequently demolished. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
