The Kirk on the Canal
Polwarth Church enjoys a unique city location adjacent to the Union Canal that runs from Edinburgh to Falkirk. The congregation has established the Polwarth Canal Garden and, working with partners has recently seen the establishment of a mooring. When funds allow, a Polwarth Kirk boat will allow new projects in this unique setting. Click on the image for a video on this exciting story…
