Burntisland, Kinghorn and Western Kirkcaldy

The Burntisland, Kinghorn and Western Kirkcaldy ward encompasses coastal settlements along the north shore of the Firth of Forth. Its geography is defined by a series of harbours and modest beaches, with residential areas extending inland onto gentle slopes. The main railway line provides a consistent transport link along this stretch of coastline, connecting the communities to larger urban centres. Industrial heritage remains visible in pockets, particularly around the docks.

A notable landmark is the distinctive circular 16th-century parish church in Burntisland. The area includes a mix of local high streets serving daily needs and quieter suburban neighbourhoods. Kinghorn is positioned around a natural bay, with paths leading along the coastal cliffs. Land use transitions towards the west into more open, green spaces on the fringes of Kirkcaldy's urban area, blending the coastal character with the town's outskirts.
