Edinburgh Theological College
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edinburgh Theological College was founded in 1810 to train Anglican clergy to serve in the Scottish Episcopal Church [1]. In 1891 the College moved to Coates Hall[2] in Grosvenor Crescent[3] where it gradually expanded to include residential accommodation and a library [4]. The College’s academic gown was black lined with thistle green [5]; and it closed in 1994. The site is now used by St Mary’s Music School[6].
