Dalkeith
Dalkeith is a town in Midlothian, Scotland, on the River Esk. It was bestowed a burgh of barony in 1401 and a burgh of regality in 1540. The settlement of Dalkeith grew south-westwards from its 12th-century castle, which is known today as Dalkeith Palace. With reference to the 2011 Census, Dalkeith has a permanent population of around 12342 people. The town is comprised of 4 different parts: Dalkeith proper with its town centre and historic core, with Eskbank to its west and Woodburn to its east. Eskbank is the prosperous sector of Dalkeith with many large Victorian and newer houses. To the south of Eskbank is Newbattle with its abbey. Woodburn is a largely working class council estate. The structure on High Street of Dalkeith, now referred to as the Tolbooth, began to be used as a tolbooth for the administration of the town in the early 18th century. The plaque above the door checks out '1648' but this was taken from another structure and does not signify when the Tolbooth was installed. Functioning largely as a site for law and order, it featured a penitentiary in the west half, a court room on the east, and a dungeon called the 'black hole' listed below ground. In front of the building there is a circle of stones to highlight the area where the last public hanging in Dalkeith took place in 1827. The town is also home to other prominent properties, such as a Watch Tower at the cemetery, a water tower and a several iron mills going back to the early 19th century.
