Mid-Lothian
Once known as Edinburghshire, Mid-Lothian lies between East Lothian and West Lothian and stretches for about twelve miles along the south shore of the Firth of Forth and faces across the water to the Kingdom of Fife.
Now relatively small, the Lothians at one time reached as far south as the River Tweed and were part of the ancient kingdom of Northumbria.
In the 9th century Kenneth I, known as MacAlpin, invaded the Lowlands and is said to have burned Dunbar and Melrose. In the next century the Scottish King Indulph wrested the original Edinburgh, which the Dalriadic Scots called Dunedin, from the Northumbrians. In 1018, after the battle of Carham, Malcolm II added all of the Lowlands north of the Tweed to his kingdom.
