Craigleith, an islet of North Berwick parish, Haddingtonshire, 1 mile N of North Berwick town. Measuring 1½ by 1 furlong, it rises to a height of 80 feet; consists of greenstone, bare and barren; and is inhabited only by rabbits, jackdaws, and sea-fowl. In 1814 Sir Hew Dalrymple bought it from the Town Council for £400.
