Levenmouth Area

The Levenmouth area is made up of three main coastal towns (Leven, Buckhaven and Methil) and a number of smaller towns and villages. These sit on the north side of the Firth of Forth in the south east of Fife. The area is characterised by heavy and traditional industries, such as coal mining and the docks, which have steadily declined over recent decades.
