Methil Docks : ウィキペディア英語版 | Methil Docks
The Methil Docks are situated in Methil, Fife, Scotland, on the northern shores of the Firth of Forth. There are two docks and vessels up to 3,000 DWT are handled. The Port specialises as a wood pulp and timber distribution centre. Methil Docks was previously used for the movement of coal and was important during the Second World War, at the time it was the second largest coal port in the United Kingdom. Due to its importance to Britain, German bombers from Norway attempted, but failed to attack the port in 1942. One bomb fell out of the target area at the Wellsley Coal Pit. This was the only time that anywhere in Fife was subject to bombing for the duration of the war.
