Methil is an eastern coastal town in Scotland. It was part of the former Burgh of Buckhaven and Methil. It lies within a continuous urban area described as Levenmouth. Methil lies geographically between Largo bay to the east and Wemyss Bay to the west. Previously an industrial maritime powerhouse of the region, it is now redirecting itself towards a green energy future. One boundary delineating Methil from its adjacent towns is the River Leven. ==Overview== Immediately adjacent to the mouth of the river was Methil power station, demolished in 2011 due to concerns about its dangerous proximity to the water's edge. However, one of the energy-producing wind turbines planned for the area might provide an alternative visual reference point, both from the Firth of Forth and from inland approaches to Methil, replacing the powers station's chimney. Also nearby the mouth of the river is Bayview Stadium, home to league 2 side East Fife Football Club. There is not a beach area between Methil and the sea, but there is a wall which protects the redeveloping docklands area. This redevelopment is reducing the physical size of the Methil Docks, but is liable to enhance the importance of the docklands in its more modern role. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Methil is an eastern coastal town in Scotland.
