Location
Edinburgh and Scottish Collection
St Stephen's Church is located in Stockbridge, roughly half a mile from Princes Street, Edinburgh. Howe Street and St Vincent Street form a steep downhill approach to the church, dramatically framing its imposing tower. The church was designed by William H. Playfair and built between 1827-28. The church, now known as the St Stephen's Centre, operates as a venue for performing arts.
The word cobble has been used here to help with searching, an alternative term is sett. Sett stones describe both the type of stone and the method in which they are used.
