Rosyth /rəˈsaɪθ/ ⓘ (Scottish Gaelic: Ros Fhìobh)[2] is a town and Garden City in Fife, Scotland, on the coast of the Firth of Forth.

Rosyth played a key role in World War II defending the North Sea especially during the German occupation of Norway.

Today, the dockyard is almost 2.2 square kilometres (0.85 sq mi) in size, a large proportion of which was reclaimed during construction.

Rosyth, Inverkeithing and nearby Charlestown were major centres of shipbreaking activity, notably the salvage of much of the German fleet scuttled at Gutter Sound, Scapa Flow,[12] the Cunard Line's RMS Mauretania, and the White Star Line's RMS Olympic.

A number of Ministry of Defence establishments and military bases are located both in and around the Naval dockyard at Rosyth.

Norfolkline was taken over by DFDS Seaways, who subsequently reduced the service to freight-only, three sailings a week in each direction.

[18] The fifteenth century Rosyth Castle stands on the perimeter of the dockyard complex, at the entry to the ferry terminal, and was once surrounded by the Firth of Forth on almost all sides, until land reclamation by the docks in the early 1900s.

The Scottish National Housing Company (SNHC) was a public utility company set up in 1915 to provide houses for employees at Rosyth naval dockyard; shares were taken by Dunfermline town council with the Public Works Loan Board lending the money.

[19] Work on building housing for the dockyard workers had been delayed due to disagreements between the Admiralty and Dunfermline council about who should take financial responsibility (1909–15).

[20] Some workers were accommodated in temporary huts called East and West Bungalow village and nicknamed 'tin town'.

[4] Unwin's assistant Alfred Hugh Mottram worked on the layout and became the SNHC's main architect, designing over 1,400 cottage-style houses.

[24][25] Scottish Enterprise Fife is now working in partnership with various private sector organisations to explore the future development of Rosyth.

To complement these developments, a new £8.4 million road was built to provide an enhanced link to the nearby M90 motorway.

East Scotland Stagecoach Bus connections: Ember Coaches: There are Ember Coach busses running all day and all night to Dundee (stops in Kinross, Bridge of Earn and Perth) and Edinburgh including the terminal at Edinburgh Airport at night, during the day it stops at Ingliston Park and Ride and includes a free one stop tram to the airport terminal with the ticket.

[30] The school will likely teach students from Rosyth, Inverkeithing, Hillend, Dalgety Bay, North Queensferry, Aberdour, High Valleyfield, and also from Southern Dunfermline.
