St Peter's Church, Catholic church in Morningside, Edinburgh, Scotland

St Peter's Church stands at 77 Falcon Avenue with Italianate architectural features designed by Robert Lorimer between 1906 and 1907.

The church construction began after Archbishop James Smith identified the requirement for a parish in Morningside, leading to its completion in 1907.

The building maintains its original architectural elements while adapting to modern liturgical practices through modifications to the marble altar and interior arrangements.

The church schedules Sunday Mass at 11:30 AM and weekday services at 9:00 AM, serving the Catholic community in southern Edinburgh.

Canon John Gray, who transitioned from his Foreign Office librarian position to priesthood in 1901, established this parish with Marc-André Raffalovitch.
