Bellsquarry

Bellsquarry is a suburban area located in the south-west of Livingston, West Lothian, Scotland.

[1] The name Bellsquarry originates from a former Burdiehouse Limestone quarry and the surname of its owner, Mr Bell.

[2] The quarry was in operation by 1782 and continued until the early 20th century, when it was used as a rubbish dump before being tidied and covered.

[5][6][7] The Elm Tree Inn located at the village square, re-opened in early 2005 as a pub (downstairs) and restaurant (upstairs).

[3] Bellsquarry wood and the area to the south of the original village was once part of the estate of Newpark House.
