Everything about River Esk Lothian totally explained
» The
River Esk is a river which flows through
Lothian,
Scotland.
It initially runs as two separate rivers, the
North Esk and the
South Esk.
The North Esk rises in the North Esk Reservoir in the
Pentland Hills, in
Midlothian, a mile (1½ km) north of the village of
Carlops. It flows north-east past
Penicuik,
Auchendinny, through
Roslin Glen, past
Hawthornden Castle,
Polton,
Lasswade and
Melville Castle.
The South Esk rises at the southernmost extremity of Midlothian, on the western slopes of Blackhope Scar (the highest of the
Moorfoot Hills). It flows north through Gladhouse and Rosebery reservoirs, and through the village of
Temple, before receiving the Redside Burn close to
Arniston House. It is joined by the Gore Water and then the Dalhousie Burn, just to the west of
Newtongrange, before passing
Newbattle Abbey and proceeding through
Dalkeith.
The rivers converge just about 2
km north-east of Dalkeith at the edge of the grounds of
Dalkeith Palace. From here the River Esk continues north for about 7 km, flowing into the
Firth of Forth at
Musselburgh,
East Lothian.
