Sappi Road, Markinch
This is Sappi Road - or West Mill Road, depending on which map you consult! The bridge is the old Balbirnie Viaduct, now part of a pedestrian path. Beyond the bridge is the new housing development of West Mill. This road will be the main access road to the development when it is completed.
Note: The houses to the right of the image are built on the location of the Balbirnie Paper Mill (from Canmore) which later became Sappi Graphics or Sappi Mill. At the other end of this road there once stood a mill known as West Mill which could account for what seems to be the 'double naming' of this road.
