Blackhall is a suburb in the north west of the Scottish capital city Edinburgh.
It is a mainly residential area with amenities including a library and a small number of shops.
Most of the housing in the neighbourhood was constructed in the inter-war period, although the recent housing boom has seen new development on the north east slope of Corstorphine Hill.
There is a local community council, Craigleith/Blackhall, that serves the area.
According to Stuart Harris in The Place Names Of Edinburgh the "Black-" in the placename could derive either from the Anglian blaec or Scots blac meaning simply black, and the "-hall" ending is from the Anglian halh or Scots haugh meaning land beside or in the bend of a river.
