South Queensferry
Queensferry, also called South Queensferry or just "The Ferry", is a community to the west of Edinburgh, Scotland, traditionally an imperial burgh of West Lothian. It exists 10 miles to the north-west of Edinburgh city centre, on the shore of the Firth of Forth in between the Forth Bridge, Forth Road Bridge as well as the Queensferry Crossing. The prefix South serves to differentiate it from North Queensferry, on the opposite shore of the Forth. Both communities acquire their name from the ferry service 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 upon the 2010 definition of the area which along with the burgh includes Dalmeny.
