Blairhall
Blairhall is a village in West Fife, Scotland. It is situated approximately west of Comrie, and west of Dunfermline. The village was originally a small hamlet but was expanded in 1911 to house the miners from a nearby colliery. Today Blairhall has a primary school and a community leisure centre. Nearly to the south, beyond Shiresmill, and to the west of the Bluther Burn, stands the 17th-century laird's house of Blairhall, which was the birthplace (c.1630) of Sir William Bruce, later baronet of Balcaskie and then Kinross, and Surveyor-General to King Charles II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Blairhall )〕 In 2008, a further expansion of the village took place to the northwest, in an area called the Coo Park which was formerly the grounds of Comrie Castle. The park was landscaped with several parkland trees and a rigg-and-furrow system of cultivation from earlier times was evident. The house was owned by a James Anderson of Blairgowrie in the 1850s, but was demolished in the early 1960s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Comrie Castle )〕 In the grounds there remain parkland trees, an overgrown ha-ha and the site of a curling pond.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Comrie Castle )〕 ==School==
Blairhall has a small primary school and nursery, with approximately 150 pupils altogether. Pupils go to Queen Anne High School in Dunfermline after this.
