Cowdenbeath
Cowdenbeath is a town and burgh in west Fife, Scotland. It is situated 5 miles north-east of Dunfermline and 18 miles north of the capital, Edinburgh. The town developed around the extensive coalfields of the region and became a Police Burgh in 1890. According to population stats from 2008, Cowdenbeath has a permanent population of around 14081. Within this number, 48.5 per cent are male and 51.5 percent are female, which follows the proportional split by gender in both the Fife and Scottish populations. Prior to 1850, Cowdenbeath was just a group of farms divided into 4 districts named after nearby farms. Local citizens of these focal points of expansion, which were merging into a single town, met to select a name for the emerging town. The eventual decision was narrowed down to either White Threshes or Cowdenbeath. The arrival of the Oakley Iron Company around 1850 was to have a long-term effect upon Cowdenbeath, making the name tantamount with coal-mining for almost 100 years. Shafts were sunk in the area of the old Foulford Washer. It was in the mining for ore that the discoveries of the coal seams were made, and pits were sunk at every corner of the town. Characterising the northern border of Cowdenbeath is a rural scene, which blends into the Lochore Meadows Country Park, 'The Meadies'. This previously industrial and mining landscape, which was the home of several pit-heads such as the Mary Pit, whose winding equipment structure dominates the park as a memorial to its notable mining history, is at present a really attractive area which offers leisure and recreational outdoor amenities.
