Buccleuch Parish Church, Parish church in South Side District, Edinburgh, United Kingdom.
The stone church building at Chapel Street features Gothic architectural elements and contains an open gallery extending to the first floor level.
The structure was constructed in 1756 as a Chapel-of-Ease by St Cuthbert's Parish Church to address the overcrowding issues in their main graveyard.
The kirkyard contains graves of notable individuals including Dr Andrew Duncan, who contributed to mental health, and Charles Darwin's uncle who studied medicine.
The building underwent renovation in 1866 under architect David MacGibbon and now functions as St Andrew's Orthodox Church within the Archdiocese of Thyateira.
The church graveyard filled rapidly due to limited space, which led to the establishment of East Preston Street Burial Ground in 1820.
