Be careful! A unit may cover just the town or village, but it may include a big surrounding area. For example, in England and Wales rural districts units with RD or RSD suffixes may even exclude the places they are named after. The "Units covering this place" tab lists units whose boundaries contained Penicuik.
We know of no constituencies that were named after Penicuik; where constituencies had more than one name, we base this on their "preferred" name.
