Parish Kirk, 1732
Basks in the economic bosom of the enfolding New Town, a lovely building on an ancient site, surrounded by a splendid graveyard with lively headstones (notably that to Thomas Graham, 1769, of Seafield, with a central cartouche flanked by a sower and reaper). Octagonal chimneys at one end, louvred bird-cage belfry at the other, it is soon to be reharled and limewashed by Ian Riddell Architect. 1970s housing at Millfield and Burnfield, just to the west, was the first use of courts that mixed pedestrians and vehicles.
