Faucheldean


West Lothian

A small roadside hamlet of NE West Lothian, Faucheldean lies a half-mile (0.8 km) southwest of Winchburgh and 1¼ miles (2 km) north of Broxburn. Developed in association with the oil-shale industry and the Hopetoun Oil Works, it is perhaps now best known for its sizeable bing, which represents the waste from this industry and lies to the east of the settlement.
