Roslin
Roslin (previously spelt Rosslyn or Roslyn) is a town in Midlothian, Scotland, 7 miles (11 kilometres) to the south of the resources city Edinburgh. It stands on high ground, near the northwest financial institution of the river North Esk. Tale has it the village was founded in 203 A.D. by Asterius, a Pict. In 1303 Roslin was the site of a battle of the First War of Scottish Independence. In 1446, Rosslyn Church was constructed, under the overview of William Sinclair, 1st Earl of Caithness. Roslin came to be vital as the seat of the St Clair (or Sinclair) family. In 1456 King James II approved it the status of a burgh. Coal mining has been a major profession from the twelfth to the late twentieth centuries. From the 19th century onward, the destinations of the Glen, Castle and Chapel established Roslin as a prominent tourist location. Remarkable site visitors consisted of J. M. W. Turner, William Wordsworth (that created a poem in the church whilst running away a storm) and also his sister Dorothy, that wrote "'I never travelled through an extra tasty dell than the glen of Rosslyn". William Morris saw in March 1887, noting in his Socialist Diary that Roslin was "a lovely glen-ny landscape much ruined, by the misery of Scotch structure and also a factory or 2." On the north-western side of the town used to be Roslin Institute, an organic study facility, where in 1996 Dolly the sheep ended up being the very first animal to be duplicated from an adult somatic cell. It transferred to Easter Bush in 2011.
