West Linton
West Linton is a village as well as civil parish in southerly Scotland, on the A702. It was previously in the area of Peeblesshire, however considering that local government re-organisation in the mid-1990s it is now part of Scottish Borders. A number of its homeowners are travelers, owing to the town's distance to Edinburgh, which is 16 miles (26 km) to the north east. West Linton has a long history, as well as holds an annual typical festival called the Whipman Play. The town of Linton is of ancient origin. Its name derives from a Celtic element (cognate with the modern Irish Gaelic linn, Scottish Gaelic linne, as well as modern-day Welsh "Llyn") meaning a lake or pool, a pool in a river, or a channel (as in Loch Linnhe, part of which is called An Linne Dhubh, the black swimming pool, or Dublin, an Anglicisation of dubh and also linn, suggesting black pool) and also the Gaelic "dun" Welsh "racket"), for a fortress, strengthened place, or armed forces camp (pertaining to the modern-day English community, by way of the Saxon "tun", a ranch or collection of dwellings), and also is evidently proper, as the village shows up to have actually been surrounded by lakes, pools and marshes. At once it was called Lyntoun Roderyck, identified maybe with Roderyck or Riderch, King of Strathclyde, whose area included this area, or with a neighborhood chieftain of that name. The Scottish Gaelic version of the name is a partial translation, Ruairidh being a Gaelic form of Roderick. The prefix "West" was acquired several centuries later on to make clear the distinction from East Linton in East Lothian.
