Old photograph of the Tay Bridge Hotel at the West End of Newburgh, Fife, Scotland. For some time, the industries here chiefly consisted of the making of linen and floorcloth, malting and quarrying, and there was fishing, especially of Salmon. But most of these industries have now gone. A linoleum factory, owned by Courtaulds, which had been the town's principal employer, closed in May 1980 after a large fire destroyed much of the building.
