Gil Burn, a rivulet in Borrowstounness parish, Linlithgowshire, rising near the centre of the parish, and running along a beautiful ravine to the Firth of Forth. Its glen, according to tradition, is haunted by the wraith of Ailie or Alice, Lady Lilburne, who threw herself down from the walls of Kinneil House, and who was either the mistress of a Duke of Hamilton or the wife of the Cromwellian colonel for some time resident at Kinneil.
