SCOTTISH Power have told Fife Council that they're planning to demolish "dangerously unsafe" agricultural buildings near Cardenden.

Citing the "different levels of structural deterioration", the company has given prior notification that they're going to take action at North Pitkinny Farm.

The site is east of Lochore and north-west of Cardenden.

A spokesperson for Scottish Power told the Times: “We own the North Pitkinny Farm, an unoccupied farmhouse and associated barns and sheds.

"Having conducted surveys on the site, we found the barns and sheds are dilapidated and dangerously unsafe.

"We have submitted a prior notification application to consider the best options for these unsafe structures.”

Asked why the company had bought the farm and what the plans are for the site, the spokesperson said: "Scottish Power acquires and maintains land in support of its long term investments in Scotland and across the UK."
