Shawfair is a 21st century development, primarily residential in character, under construction in Midlothian, Scotland, near to the existing village of Danderhall and the hamlets of Newton and Millerhill, which lie just outside the eastern boundary of the city of Edinburgh.

The Minewater Project, an experimental scheme to provide geothermal energy was to be based in Shawfair;[6] however the business case was deemed not economically viable.

In 2009 Miller pulled out due to market conditions, putting the development in doubt.

[2][3] The £200 million development[5] will create a new residential and commercial centre with around 4,000 new homes, two primary schools, a secondary school and 1,000,000 sq ft (93,000 m2) of commercial and retail space.

The development includes a private hospital, Spire Shawfair Park, complementing an existing facility in Edinburgh's Murrayfield.
