Dalmeny
Dalmeny ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Dail Mheinidh)) is a village and parish in Scotland. It is located on the south side of the Firth of Forth, one mile southeast of Queensferry and eight miles west of Edinburgh. It lies within the traditional boundaries of West Lothian, and falls under the local governance of the City of Edinburgh Council. ==Name history== The name Dalmeny is either of Cumbric origin: deriving from ''Din Meini'', "stony fort" cf. the earlier form ''Dunmanye'' (1562),〔Watson, W. (1926) A History of Celtic Place-names of Scotland". Edinburgh〕 most likely referring to Castle Craig above the town; or potentially of Scottish Gaelic origin, being now ''Dail Mheinnidh'' or ''Dail M'Eithne'' in the modern language. This may refer to an ancient ecclesiastical settlement, dedicated to an obscure (female) saint Eithne. The local parish church may have been dedicated to her, but is now dedicated to St Cuthbert.
