The Glasite Meeting House in Edinburgh was the home of the Glasite or Sandemanian religious sect founded by John Glas around 1730 in Dundee, the origin of the Churches of Christ in America. Designed by Alexander Black in 1836 the meeting house reflects the nature of Glasite worship, with an upstairs Feast Room for the Sunday love feast, and a main meeting with prominent central pulpit for preaching-centred meetings. We carried out access audits of the publicly accessible spaces, now used as offices by Scotland's leading heritage organisations, and advised on possible alterations and improvements which would respect the unspoiled historic character of the building and interior spaces.

Lighting is often a key factor in visual accessibility We always include signs in our audits
