Bellfield is a community centre located in what was previously Portobello Old Parish Church, a Georgian church of classical design located in Bellfield (formerly Melville) Street, Portobello, Edinburgh, Scotland. The church was the subject of a successful community buy-out in 2017, and reopened as a community centre on 23 June 2018. Dated 1809, it was built between 1808 and 1810 to a design by William Sibbald, at a cost of £2650. It was enlarged in 1815 and 1878.
