A multi-million-pound urban village will transform a historic town centre remnant of Dunfermline's past.

Linklever Scotland has been given the go-ahead to breathe new life into the A-listed former linen damask factory and warehouse known as Pilmuir Works and St Margaret's Works.

Under the scheme the eyesore former Dunlop and Castleblair factory sites will be transformed into housing, shops, restaurant/cafe and other units. It will be yet another step towards regenerating the area after a £17m revamp of Carnegie Leisure Centre across the narrow Pilmuir Street.
