Bishop Robson had been approached by a group of around sixty people, who requested The Traditional Mass, which set things in motion.
The inaugural Mass was on Sunday, 15 March 2015, at Saint Joseph's Convent Chapel, Dundee, Scotland. Edinburgh-based Fr John Emerson FSSP was the Celebrant.

MONTHLY EXTRAORDINARY FORM MASS.
Bishop Robson thanked all who responded to his invitation to come and celebrate Holy Mass in The Extraordinary Form at Saint Joseph’s Chapel, Lawside (Sunday, 15 March 2015).
“There were about 130 people present,” said Bishop Stephen Robson, “the original group who petitioned me were about 65 in number and so the numbers participating were much higher than expected with a fairly large number of young people and teenagers.
“The beautiful High Mass was celebrated by Fr John Emerson FSSP and served by our own student servers with music provided by the students of Saint Andrew’s University chaplaincy.”
A short meeting after the Mass revealed a general acceptance that, if the Mass in The Extraordinary Form should be offered on a regular basis, it would be supported and greatly appreciated. Accordingly The Mass has been arranged for a Monthly Celebration until Christmas, for whence the practice can be re-assessed.
The Extraordinary Form of The Mass will be Celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of the Month, at 4 p.m, In Saint Joseph’s Chapel, Lawside, Dundee.
The dates for 2015 are as follows: 19 April; 17 May; 21 June; 19 July; 16 August; 20 September;
