History

St Luke's was established as a congregation of the Free Church of Scotland in 1878, and worshipped in an iron building now in use as the church hall. [1] The Free Church merged with the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland in 1900, and then these merged with the Church of Scotland in 1929. In 1953, the congregation of St Luke's was united with that of Queen Street Church. [1]
