Scope and Content Duddingston Village, Edinburgh Duddingston is a small and compact village built around a church founded in the 12th century. It lies in the shelter of Arthur's Seat, just outside the boundary of Holyrood Park, in a quiet rural setting on the shores of Duddingston Loch. The village, a collection of mainly Georgian and Victorian villas built around the church, is reached by a beautiful approach through Holyrood Park. An extensive rubble wall forms the boundary between the park and the village. The boundary wall, which runs from the lochside up a long climb to the north to Dunsapie Hill, includes an 18th-century pantiled out-house and a narrow entry that once formed the original entrance to the village.
