North Queensferry dates back to before 1046; when the Abbot of Dunfermline awarded a charter to the village to ferry Queen Margaret across the Forth on her way to Edinburgh via St. Edward's Bay. The village is a charming place to stroll about; there's the ruin of St. James' Chapel which is designated as an Ancient Monument. Take a stroll down The Old Town Pier where the Ferry Boats used to sail from & St. James' Harbour.

No one can possibly miss the Forth Rail Bridge that commands the view of all, completed in 1890 it is often described as the Eighth Wonder of the World.
