Trinity College Church

Also known as Trinity Church
and as College Church

Trinity Church was originally in Low Calton, but was removed to make way for the building of the railway and Waverley Station.

The stones lay on Calton Hill for many years, before the church was partially rebuilt close to the Royal Mile, close to John Knox House, down Trunk's Close.  The church has now found a new use, as the Edinburgh Brass Rubbing Centre.
