Dalry, Edinburgh
Dalry () is an area of the Scottish capital city of Edinburgh. It is located close to the city centre, between Haymarket and Gorgie. The area is now primarily residential. It is centred around Dalry Road, which has numerous shops, restaurants and small businesses. Lying outside the old city walls and west of the castle, the area began as part of the agricultural estate of Dalry House (constructed in 1661), the exception being the Dalry Mill, recorded as the oldest paper mill in Scotland, now demolished.

By the early 21st century most of the industry of Dalry has disappeared, with the former sites converted to private housing. Etymology The name Dalry may derive from ''Dail Ruigh'' or ''Dail Rìgh'', Scottish Gaelic for the "Place of the Fields" or "King's Field" respecti ...
