Scope and Content Beehive factory, Wormit, Fife This is a small two-storey brick workshop building, belonging to R Steele and Brodie, with other buildings round a courtyard. This view shows the simple workshop building, with its external wooden stair, and piended low-pitched roof. It looks like a joiner's shop, which in effect it is, for beehive manufacture is a specialised form of woodworking. Bee-keeping is more successful in relatively dry conditions, which probably accounts for the location of this little factory in the east of Scotland. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
