Cowdenbeath
Cowdenbeath is a town and burgh in west Fife, Scotland. It lies 5 miles north-east of Dunfermline and 18 miles north of the capital, Edinburgh. The town established around the large-scale coalfields of the region and became a Police Burgh in 1890. Based upon population statistics from 2008, Cowdenbeath has a fixed population of around 14081. Among this population, 48.5 percent 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 simply a group of farms divided into four districts named after nearby farms. Local inhabitants of these centerpieces of growth, which were combining into a single town, got together to select a name for the emerging town. The eventual choice was narrowed down to either White Threshes or Cowdenbeath. The arrival of the Oakley Iron Company around 1850 was to have an enduring impact 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 perimeter of Cowdenbeath is a rural scene, which merges into the Lochore Meadows Country Park, 'The Meadies'. This previously commercial and mining landscape, which was home to a range of pit-heads including the Mary Pit, whose winding gear structure looms over the park as a memorial to its noteworthy mining history, is at present a very beautiful area which provides leisure and recreational outdoor facilities.
