Here at Wemyssonline I hope you will find many interesting links and topics, as the site is built up and expands.

We are here in Coaltown of Wemyss, about 2 miles from Kirkcaldy ,one of the best little villages there is.

For those of you who don't know where that is, it is in the Kingdom of Fife in Scotland.

Coaltown of Wemyss lies either side of  the A955 and takes its name from the old mining activity at the Bell pits. Originally, it was two villages, Easter and Wester, but when the miners distinctive cottages were expanded by the Wemyss Coal Co in 1860, the two villages were amalgamated as a "model mining village". The village also had a public house of the Gothenburg system, now known as the Earl David Hotel. The rounded houses are an interesting feature of the village.

The Wemyss School of Needlework was first established in 1877 at Wemyss Castle  by Lady Dorothy Wemyss and opened its present building in 1880. The School began as a charity and now repairs old tapestries and undertakes orders for embroidery.

Enough about this wonderful village I live in. Why do I have this web site you ask yourself. Well basically because I am a web designer ad need to be able to show you what I am capable of. Follow the links above and have a look.
