Scope and Content Markinch Station, Fife This two-platform through station was built for the Edinburgh and Northern Railway, to serve the old town of Markinch. It was designed by David Bell, in an Italianate style characteristic of much station building in the 1840s. This view shows the main station building from the south east. The railway is in a cutting running below the grassy area in the foreground. Note that the station house and main offices are on a railed terrace above the tracks. This layout of buildings is most unusual, and the reason for its adoption obscure. The south-bound platform is reached by the footbridge on the right, incorporated in a road bridge, a device also found at Cupar, on the same line. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
