A horse-engine house at Gilston
The octagonal building, variously known as horse mill, horse-engine or gin gang, would have been connected to a small threshing machine in the adjacent barn, which in turn was powered by a horse walking around in a circle inside the mill. This was necessary where there was no reliable source of water for power, but they were duly superseded by the coming of the steam powered engines. Commonly constructed in the late 18th to early 19th centuries, many have now been demolished, and the mills are relatively uncommon.

Old bridge over a long-lost railway
Carrying a farm road near Cairn, this bridge spans the track-bed of the former East Fife Central Railway, known locally as 'The Lochty Line'. The track was built between Cameron Bridge and Lochty to carry coal and agricultural products. After a long, but not very profitable, life it finally closed on 1964. A short section of track at the Lochty end was preserved for a few years as a private railway heritage venture, complete with an A4 express locomotive and some rolling stock, before it too closed in 1992.
