Linlithgow Loch, Freshwater lake near Linlithgow, Scotland.
Located in West Lothian, this 41-hectare lake measures 1.3 kilometers in length and 0.4 kilometers in width, with a maximum depth of 9.2 meters.
The name originates from British term 'llyn laith cau', while two islets in the lake contain remains of crannogs dating back 5,000 years.
During winter 1847, the lake hosted the Grand Curling Match, a major sporting competition that attracted participants from across Scotland.
The lake offers activities including trout fishing, with regular releases of rainbow trout managed by the Forth Area Federation of Anglers.
The lake contains two notable islets, Cormorant Island and the Rickle, which support multiple species of wild birds throughout the year.
