Colinton Parish Church, Category B listed church building in Colinton, Edinburgh, Scotland.

The neo-Byzantine style church stands on Dell Road, featuring pink sandstone columns and an ancient graveyard along the Water of Leith.

The present church location dates from 1636, with significant reconstructions in 1771 and subsequent architectural enhancements by Sydney Mitchell during 1907-1908.

The congregation produces The Parish Publication magazine, combining news from Colinton and Juniper Green churches while organizing regular community gatherings.

Regular worship services occur at 9:30 and 11:15 AM on Sundays, with weekday visiting hours from Monday through Friday between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

A one-tonne iron mort-safe from the 1820s remains outside the church, formerly used to protect new graves from body snatchers supplying Edinburgh medical schools.
