We only work 3 days so we may not reply to questions straight away. Working in a former mining community, the conjoined towns of Buckhaven and Methil (population 16,000) in need of revival, CLEAR stands for Community-Led Environmental Action for Regeneration. to improve the negl

ected local environment and 2. to re-engage local people and build civic pride in the process. CLEAR carries out extensive planting and growing (community orchards, woodland, growing spaces, bulbs and flowers) year-round, which includes two vibrant community gardens, as well as landscape and greenspace site improvements (parks, paths, heritage and community art) seeking small scale transformative impact. It relies mainly on local volunteers and works with schools, college and other local groups.

A couple of important shops in lower Methil probably taken around the early 1900's.
Was McKee in Commercial Street? I'm assuming the Ship's Chandler's was near the dock entrance.

Friday art series latest - Buckhaven Harbour, 1924 looking down West Wynd

Painted by John Mackenzie (active 1956–1961, so was it from another image?).
Grandson of well-known Pittenweem fisherman, Joseph Buttars and son of herring lassie Rachel Buttars. One of seven brothers and sisters. Charlie and brother John worked in docks or mines around Methil and both painted in their spare time. Charlie painted landscapes and horses while John preferred portraits. All five brothers were in the war, Charlie and John were drivers, John was rescued from Dunkirk.

Thanks to Scottish Fisheries Museum

During recent hive inspections we found something we’ve never seen before! It’s not uncommon for insects to invade honey bee hives but this is the first time we’ve seen a snail shell being built into the hive. This wee creature has invaded the hive and been swiftly dealt with. The honeybees must not have been able to remove the snail shell though so have instead opted to work around it. Brilliant little creatures! 🐝
