Gradually, the demand for the harbour began to fall and it went into decline.〔 The harbour has since been filled in and part of the old village restored,〔 becoming a conservation area with several attractive buildings.〔 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「West Wemyss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
