50 Gems of Fife : The History & Heritage of the Most Iconic Places, Paperback / softback Book

50 Gems of Fife : The History & Heritage of the Most Iconic Places Paperback / softback

Part of the 50 Gems series

Paperback / softback

Description

The historic county of Fife is a natural peninsula on the east coast of Scotland, bordered by the Firth of Forth and the Firth of Tay.

Alongside its three largest settlements of Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes it is also home to the ancient city of St Andrews, with its world-famous golf course and university.

The often turbulent history of Fife is reflected in its royal palaces, castles and other ruins, such as Ravenscraig Castle and Dunfermline Abbey. Fife's picturesque coast draws visitors to places like Crail Harbour and Pittenweem.

Fife's cultural and industrial heritage are also celebrated, including the Fife Folk Museum, the Anstruther Fisheries Museum and the Fife Heritage Railway. 50 Gems of Fife explores the many places and their history that make this part of Scotland so special, including natural features, towns and villages, buildings and places of historical interest.

Alongside justly famous attractions, others will be relatively unknown, but all have an interesting story to tell.
