Newburgh is a royal burgh in Fife, set on the south shore of the River Tay. The town has a long history of fishing and industrial heritage and was given royal burgh status in 1266 by King Alexander III of Scotland, and its biggest employer is now quarrying, with many residents commuting to nearby towns and cities, which is made easy owing to the close proximity of major road links, excellent bus links, and a train station within driving distance in Ladybank. Newburgh boasts excellent everyday amenities, including convenience stores, independent retailers, craft and gift shops, a pharmacy, a doctor's surgery, a Post Office, cafés, and coffee shops. More extensive shopping is available in the surrounding towns and nearby Perth, where gyms, leisure pools, and further recreational facilities can also be found. Residents of Newburgh who enjoy the outdoors are spoilt for choice with nearby parks and the River Tay, whilst the burgh also lies on the picturesque Fife Coastal Path. Schooling is catered for at pre-school and primary level at Newburgh Primary School, followed by secondary education at Bell Baxter High School in Cupar. Some of the area’s fine independent schools are also easily accessible from Newburgh.
