Kingseat

Human settlement in Scotland

About

Kingseat is a village in Fife, Scotland, approximately 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northeast of Dunfermline. It was originally a coal mining village with the first pits sunk in the area in the mid 1800s. According to local belief, the village’s name comes from royal visits to the area, where the king was said to have looked out over the River Forth and toward Arthur's Seat.
