In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Pencaitland like this:
Pencaitland, par. and vil., W. Haddingtonshire - par., 5075 ac., pop. 1107; vil., on river Tyne (which divides it into Easter and Wester Pencaitland), 1½ mile SE. of Winton ry. sta. and 5½ miles SW. of Haddington; P.O.; has an interesting old church and an ancient market cross.
Pencaitland is now part of EAST LOTHIAN Council. Click here for graphs and data of how EAST LOTHIAN has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Pencaitland itself, go to Statistics.
