This is a view of the Dunfermline to Rosyth dual carriageway (A823) which is said to be the first road of this type in Scotland. When the Dunfermline Tramway was extended in 1918 to include a route to Rosyth Dockyard the road was reconstructed to accommodate the tramlines running in the central area between two carriageways. This view is towards Dunfermline, the area filled with daffodils is where the tram lines ran.
