Review of St Andrews in The Square from 26 August 2012
This marvellous Georgian former church has a Baroque interior with magnificent plasterwork by Thomas Clayton, Corinthian columns and an exquisite gilded ceiling. It has been sympathically renovated and restored over the years and is now a centre for traditional Scottish music and other concerts and media events.  

Said to be one of the finest classical churches in Britain, it was built from 1739-57 by Mungo Naismith to a design by local architect Allan Dreghorn, who was inspired by St Martin-in-the-Fields in London. 

It has received six prestigious awards: Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, Glasgow Institute of Architects Special Award, Europa Nostra Diploma, Civic Trust Commendation, Scottish Award for Quality in Planning and the Dynamic Place Award.

St Andrews in the Square is located in the Merchant City, just off Saltmarket, in the east of the city. I must say I was very impressed when I visited it recently.
