Best Answer

There are no active volcanoes in Scotland, only extinct ones which do not erupt.

However, according to recent scientific research, there is evidence of lightweight UK earthquakes and the re-activation of dormant pre-historic volcanoes.

So, we might even expect some 'Vesuvius' type volcanic activity in the future.
