Winchburgh, a village in Kirkliston parish, Linlithgowshire, 11 ¾ miles W of Edinburgh. It has a station on the North British railway and a post office, with money order, savings' bank, and telegraph departments.
Winchburgh is now part of WEST LOTHIAN Council. Click here for graphs and data of how WEST LOTHIAN has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Winchburgh itself, go to Statistics.
