We are a Catholic parish located in the Portobello district of Edinburgh, Scotland, in the Archdiocese of St Andrews and Edinburgh. Our historic church building was designed by the architect JT Walford and was completed in 1906.

Our parochial school is St. John's RC Primary School, located at 18 Duddingston Road. We share our community with our sister parish, St Mary Magdalene's at Bingham.
