It is a small village in Midlothian, Scotland, situated approximately 12 miles from Edinburgh Airport. Locals say that the name is derived from the conjunction of two Gaelic words describing the village’s primary features: a rocky promontory and a waterfall or pool.
Two reasons why this place has entered popular consciousness:
a. A chapel in the village being featured in a best-selling book and a film based on the book.
b. A research institute of some importance being located here and named after the village
