Edinburgh
edinburgh castle sits on an extinct volcano
Yes. Edinburgh Castle is built on an extinct volcano and the nearby Arthur's Seat is the same.
The UK itself does not have any active volcanoes. The closest active volcanic region is in Iceland. However, any potential volcanic activity there would have to be very significant to pose a direct danger to the UK.
extinct volcano
Volcano Villarica is not extinct it is an active volcano.
A volcano is said to be extinct when it isn't there any more.
The opposite of an active volcano is an extinct volcano, which is a volcano that has not erupted in a long time and is not expected to erupt again.
The volcano is said to be extinct if it hasn't erupted for at least 10,000 years.
A dormant volcano is one that is just sleeping and it is possible to erupt again. An extinct volcano will never erupt again.
if a rift zone stops speeding, the volcano will become extinct:)
