Glenrothes

Glenrothes has served as a planned new town in Fife since the late 1940s. It was developed to accommodate workers connected with the expansion of coal mining in the area, and its broad streets, neighbourhood centres and generous green spaces still reflect post-war planning. Set in the valley of the River Leven, the town is surrounded by the rolling countryside of central Fife. Glenrothes is also noted for public art, with sculptures and murals incorporated into everyday streets and parks. Its position makes it a practical base for exploring Fife’s historic towns and the wider east of Scotland. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Scotland.
