This one’s up for grabs.
About Gardeners
A gardener maintains outdoor spaces - mowing, pruning, weeding, planting, and keeping things tidy through the seasons.
A regular local gardener takes the effort out of keeping your plot in good shape year-round.
Be clear upfront about what's included in a visit - mowing, edging, weeding, and pruning are all different conversations.
About Whitburn
Whitburn is a town in the south of West Lothian, formerly a mining community whose collieries closed through the 20th century, leaving a largely residential population.
The town sits close to the M8, giving fast access to Livingston, Edinburgh, and Glasgow — a practical location for those who commute across the central belt.
Whitburn has a range of local shops, schools, and amenities, with the surrounding area retaining traces of its industrial past in the open land where pit sites once stood.

About West Lothian
West Lothian is a council area in the heart of the central belt, sitting between Edinburgh to the east, Falkirk to the north, and North Lanarkshire to the west.
It is a county of contrasts: historic royal burghs like Linlithgow and ancient villages like Torphichen sit alongside the new town of Livingston and the former mining and shale oil communities that shaped the landscape in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Livingston is the county's main centre — Scotland's fifth-largest settlement — but West Lothian's character is defined as much by its smaller towns: Bathgate, Broxburn, Whitburn, and Linlithgow each have their own distinct identity.
The oil shale industry, pioneered here in the 1850s by James Young, left a lasting mark on the landscape in the form of distinctive pink bings — the waste heaps of the shale works — that have become recognised landmarks in their own right.
West Lothian has excellent transport connections, with the M8 and M9 crossing the county, two rail lines linking it to Edinburgh and Glasgow, and Edinburgh Airport on its eastern edge.
