St Andrew's Ukrainian Catholic Church

Our Lady of Pochaev and St Andrew's Ukrainian Catholic Church is situated on Dalmeny Street, Leith. It is one of the few Ukrainian Greek Catholic parish churches in Scotland. It is a church in the only Eastern-rite Catholic diocese in Great Britain, the Apostolic Exarchate for Ukrainians.

Building

The sandstone Gothic Revival building was built for the United Presbyterian church in 1882 in a design adapted by Archibald Thomson from an original version by Sloan & Balderston in 1822.[1]
