Osborne (2006) records a pre-First World War drill hall on North Street. It is not marked as a drill hall on the 2nd or 3rd edition 1:2500 OS maps but is still in use as a TA centre. Osborne records "F" Company, 7th battalion Black Watch and the base of Fife Battery, 2nd Highland Brigade Royal Field Artillery as being based in Leven in 1914. But as there was another drill hall in Leven, on Glenlyon Road, and it is not clear which unit was based where in 1914.
