  Research Notes:

OLD AND NEW GREYFRIARS EDINBURGH

The original 'Gray Friars' or Greyfriars' Church was built between 1602 and 1620, but in 1718 it was partially wrecked when gunpowder stored in the church tower exploded. Rather than just repair the original church, the town council commissioned plans for a second church to be built against the west end of the existing church. The New Greyfriars' Church was opened in 1721. The congregations of the old and new churches appear to have been separate until they became united in 1929.
