Dist:0.7km<br/>An educational establishment in the district of Glenrothes with the unusual name of Macedonia. It inherited this name from a farm originally located here, but why the farm was called Macedonia I have not yet been able to find out.

Dist:1.0km north<br/>The River Leven, in spate after several days of heavy rain, roars over the weir situated immediately below the Penstock pipes supplying the small Hydro-Electric generating station at the former Fettykil Paper Mill, Leslie. In summertime the River is all but dry at this point, with the main flow of water passing along the lade and passing through the power station.

Dist:1.0km north<br/>The screens which protect the hydro-electric turbines by preventing the entry of tramp material. The hydro-electric station operates under a head of 33 feet, achieved by combining a series of smaller falls originally exploited by textile mills situated in close succession in the valley of the River Leven.

Dist:1.0km north<br/>Sluice gates and overflow weir by which excess water by-passes the Hydro-Electric power station at Fettykil Paper Mill to return to the River Leven below. While Fettykil Paper Mill closed in June 2006, the hydro-electric station continues to generate supplying power for lighting the site.
