The historic and anicent town of South Queensferry sits on the south shore at the narrowest part of the Forth Estuary 10 miles (16km) west of Edinburgh. (Scotland's Capital City) The town rests between the Forth Rail Bridge (built 1890) and the Forth Road Bridge (built 1964).

Besides two world class bridges the town has much more to offer. South Queensferry offers one of the most interesting collections of buildings you are likely to find anywhere. Oldest is St Mary's church, which dates from 1441. The oldest house is "Black Castle", built on the High Street in 1626.
