Kirkliston
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kirkliston is a small village in the unitary authority area of Edinburgh, Scotland. Kirkliston was the location of the first meeting of the Estates of Scotland, the former parliament of Scotland. It sits close to the world-famous Forth Road Bridge and Forth Rail Bridge and is 5 minutes drive away from South Queensferry. Kirkliston is in proximity to Edinburgh Airport and the M9 motorway.
Kirkliston used to be well-known for its Drambuie whisky factory but the factory re-located several years ago. It may be referred to as a dormitory village.
