About

Inverkeithing and Dalgety Bay ward encompasses coastal and inland areas on the north shore of the Firth of Forth. The ward includes the historic burgh of Inverkeithing, with its medieval street plan and harbour, and the modern, predominantly residential town of Dalgety Bay, developed from the 1960s. The landscape features woodland and shoreline, with views across the water to Edinburgh and the bridges.

The area is shaped by its transport links, situated near the Forth Road and Rail Bridges. St. Bridget's Kirk, a ruined medieval church by the shore in Dalgety Bay, sits amidst a scheduled ancient monument. Economic activity includes industrial estates in Inverkeithing and a ferry repair yard at the harbour, alongside local retail centres serving the communities.
