dc.descriptionOverall view of facade; Dutch-style end gable and curious, small doric-columned portico; The basilica-plan church serves the Parish of Canongate in Edinburgh's Old Town. The Baroque facade features a Dutch-style end gable and a curious, small doric-columned portico. It is a congregation of the Church of Scotland, originally built under the patronage of King James VII. The parish includes the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament. It is also the parish church of Edinburgh Castle, even though the castle is detached from the rest of the parish. The Canongate was a separate burgh before it was formally absorbed by Edinburgh in 1856. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 8/2/2014)en_US
