Welcome to the website of Reid Memorial Church, Edinburgh. The Church is a registered Charity, number SC014027. We gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Heritage Lottery Fund and Historic Scotland.

Since 1931 the Church has served the people in and around Blackford, in the south of Edinburgh between Morningside to the west and Mayfield to the east. A member of the Church of Scotland, the church is notable for its fine architecture, peaceful interior, exterior ambience and first-class organ.

Our recently-installed disabled access and facilities to both the Church and the Halls have been much appreciated. The refurbished Large Hall offers comfortable and attractive surroundings for an increased range of activities. We are happy to make these facilities available to the community. Whether or not you decide to worship with us, you are assured of a warm welcome.
