The church can be traced back to 1896, but the church at its present location opened in 1902 and was called Cairns Memorial after Principal John Cairns, D.D. The official opening of this building was in November 1901. The church, as well as Cairns Memorial Church served the Parish in Gorgie until 1979 when the Cairns Memorial and Tynecastle Churches were united and Gorgie Parish Church came into being. The decision was made to use the building at 190 Gorgie Road.
