South Queensferry
Queensferry, also called South Queensferry or just "The Ferry", is a community to the west of Edinburgh, Scotland, commonly a royal burgh of West Lothian. It lies ten miles to the north-west of Edinburgh city centre, on the shore of the Firth of Forth between the Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and also the Queensferry Crossing. The prefix South offers to identify it from North Queensferry, on the opposite shore of the Forth. Both communities derive their name from the ferryboat solution developed by Queen Margaret in the 11th century, which remained to operate at the community till 1964, when the Road Bridge was opened. Its population at the 2011 census was 9,026 based on the 2010 definition of the region which in addition to the burgh includes Dalmeny.
