making history

St Andrew’s and St George’s West was built in 1784 as St Andrew’s Church, the first church in the New Town of Edinburgh.

In 1843 St Andrew’s was the scene of the Disruption of the Church of Scotland, a bitter schism which lasted decades.

The Disruption was so significant to the 19th Century in Scotland that it is commemorated in the Great Tapestry of Scotland.

This is a huge community art project where over 160 scenes from Scotland’s history were stitched throughout Scotland and then assembled into one great narrative.

The Disruption panel was embroidered by a group of 18 volunteer stitchers based here at St Andrew’s and St George’s West.

From 1 July - 13 September 2014 – during both the Edinburgh Festival and Fringe – you have a chance to see the whole of the Great Tapestry in Edinburgh, at a free exhibition at the Scottish Parliament.

See www.scotlandstapestry.com and www.scottish.parliament.uk/ for latest information.
