Dalmeny is a village to the north west of Edinburgh, adjacent to South Queensferry. Its parish church dates from the 12th Century, and is a fine example of Romanesque architecture. Its western tower was removed at some point, but rebuilt in a sympathetic style in 1937.

Dalmeny House is the home to the 7th Earl and Countess of Rosebery, it is open to the public and corporate events.

This photograph is from a volume entitled 'Photographs of houses in the vicinity of Lauriston Castle' which was compiled in 1909. The book has the armorial bookplate of Macknight Crawfurd of Cartsburn, Lauriston Castle, on the inside cover.
