Abbeyhill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Abbeyhill is a suburb of Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland.
As with many other city suburbs, the name has broader and narrower meanings. Generally it may be taken to mean the part of town lying between Holyrood Park (and perhaps The Palace of Holyroodhouse itself) to the south and east; Calton Hill to the north; and the yards of Waverley Station to the west. It is one of the oldest parts of the city, and as well as being overshadowed by the recently constructed new Scottish Parliament building, also contains a number of old churches, churchyards, and looks onto the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
