The Eden Campus of St Andrews University occupies the premises of the former Curtis Fine Papers mill which went into administration in 2008. Since 2016 the site has been developed by the University as an innovation, research and development centre. It incorporates a large biomass plant and it is planned in the future to house spin-off high-tech businesses. To the right is a cycle-and-pedestrian path which is followed by both National Cycle Network route 1 and the Fife Coastal Path. The A919 runs between the path and the buildings.

Closed, like most factories in Scotland.

On the right is Walter Bower House, part of the University of St Andrews.

Main Street by the paper mill, Guardbridge during a downpour.

Whilst the mill is in this square, it may be that its carpark from which this shot is taken could be the next square west. The map seems to indicate the road (A919 St Andrews-Leuchars) divides the two.

A short but nice path links the Innerbridge area of Guardbridge with Seggie Farm. Looking back down a section towards the mill.

In Fife.

Looking along the A919 and the western edge of the now closed paper mill. It is along this line of sight that Guardbridge suffered a fatal air raid in April 1940. The female fatality was waiting by the bus stop when she was caught in the blast from the first bomb. The second bomb landed in the mill pond and fail to go off. Recently the mill pond was back filled to make a new car park but it occupied the area to the right of the hedging by the car and trailer. The other casualty was a strafing injury sustained by the driver of the Craigie Farm truck who was being backed into the mill by the door under the mill clock. He made a full recovery. Some children at the school just off to the right had a lucky escape when their school's woodwork shop was demolished by the blast. The building was empty, that morning's class in the building had been cancelled due to frozen pipes. From information given by Mr Bob Russel, one of the lucky woodwork pupils at the school that morning.
