Blackhall, Edinburgh

Blackhall is a suburb in the north west of the Scottish capital city Edinburgh. Blackhall according to Stuart Harris in "The Place Names Of Edinburgh" states that the "Black" could derive either from the Anglican blaec or Scots blac meaning simply black, and the "Hall" ending is the Anglican "Halh" or Scots "Haugh" meaning land beside or in the bend of a river. There is also evidence that the street "March road" is derived from "Marsh Road" as the area was bog and wetland hundreds of years ago.
