Davidson's Mains is a former village and now a district in the north-west of Edinburgh, Scotland.[1] It is adjacent to the districts of Barnton, Cramond, Silverknowes, Blackhall and Corbiehill/House O'Hill. It was absorbed into Edinburgh as part of the boundary changes in 1920 and is part of the EH4 postcode area.

Locals sometimes abbreviate the name to D'Mains or even simply Dmains.
