The name "Scotland Yard" comes from a small street off Whitehall in London, where the Scottish Embassy was based prior to the political union of Scotland and England in 1707. The Metropolitan Police later had its headquarters in this street (until the 1880s, when the first New Scotland Yard was built).

Why is Scotland yard called Scotland yard?
Scotland Yard is a place in London, England. The name dates from a time (before 1707) when Scotland and England were still separate countries each with their own king, court and government. As a result the Scottish kings kept their own embassy in London, just as they did in any other foreign country, with their own ambassadors and representatives. The English king granted them an area for their embassy. This area which they inhabited in London was known as "Scotland Yard". In Victorian times the building which was erected on the same spot was known as Scotland Yard and it was occupied by the police force. Soon the name "Scotland Yard" became synonymous with the Metropolitan Police force.
