Despite much effort, I have yet to find any information about this building, either online or in 'The Buildings of Scotland'. A neighbour told me that it was built after she moved here, and postdates St Theresa's Church in Niddrie Mains Road. She also said that the shape of the angular roofs is supposed to be inspired by a bishop's mitre. For another view see Image
