Midlothian, Administrative region in eastern Scotland
The territory spans from coastal plains near the Firth of Forth to the Moorfoot Hills, with the River Esk flowing through its heart.
The region transformed from Edinburghshire to Midlothian in 1947, following centuries of political and military significance in Scottish-English relations.
The region holds numerous medieval structures, including the Cistercian abbey at Newbattle and a Knights Templar church at Temple.
The council area maintains agricultural production of oats, barley, potatoes, and wheat, while supporting electronics manufacturing in suburban zones.
The Midlothian Campaign of 1878-1880 established new standards in political campaigning through William Gladstone's influential speaking tours.
