South Queensferry, West Lothian, Scotland

Queensferry, also called South Queensferry or simply "The Ferry", is a town to the west of EdinburghScotland. Traditionally a royal burgh of West Lothian, it is now administered by the City of Edinburgh Council. It lies ten miles to the north-west of Edinburgh city centre, on the shore of the Firth of Forth between the Forth BridgeForth Road Bridge and the Queensferry Crossing.

 

The prefix South distinguishes it from North Queensferry, on the opposite shore of the Forth for postal services. Both towns on the Forth derive their name from the ferry service established by Queen Margaret in the 11th century, which continued to operate at the town until 1964, when the Road Bridge was opened.

 

South Queensferry has been named the most beautiful town in Scotland following a 2025 Telegraph study of 1,250 towns across the UK.

The 2022 census counted 10,216 residents in South Queensferry, as it was listed at that time. Its population at the 2011 census was 9,026 based on the 2010 definition of the locality which in addition to the burgh includes Dalmeny.
