[1] The church was founded to serve the Scottish community in Singapore but now caters to a congregation of widely different backgrounds and holds services in a number of different languages.In 1822, its Scottish members held a meeting with the aim of setting up a local Presbyterian church; however, the first service was not held until 6 October 1856 with the arrival of Rev Thomas McKenzie Fraser to Singapore.[5] The building is single storey structure with tiled pitched roofs, with a Palladian-styled facade facing Orchard Road.The front facade has finials at the four corners of the tower,[1] and it is topped by a cupola supported by columns.[8] The church originally catered to the Scottish community in Singapore and services were conducted in English.
