Strange enclosure near Woodmill Mains This is one side of an enclosure fenced with railway sleepers, perhaps 30-35 each side flanking a single track road width of concreted level ground. All of it is in a poor state now. The enclosure is just off a track opposite Woodmill Mains. Considering its age and construction it may have been something to do with the railway that is immediately adjacent the nearby Newburgh to Collessie road.

Abandoned cattle feeders Monimail to Dunbog track These cattle feeders are on the old track between Monimail and Dunbog at the junction with the track to Cairneyhill Farm and Lindores Loch. The new wind turbine can just be seen through the haze as the track dips down to Dunbog. This is a good place to stop for a rest when walking or mountain biking over the North Fife Hills. Note that there is at least one additional photograph of these feeders on Geograph mapped to the wrong location.
