Cameron Bridge is a village in the conurbation of Levenmouth in Fife, Scotland. It is near to the village of Windygates and west of the town of Leven. A distillery was established in the 19th century by the Haig family, which is now part of Diageo.
History and locality
It is a settlement at a bridge over the River Leven, which replaced a ford there. When Leven was flooded it was the first upstream crossing. In 1870, an earlier bridge was replaced with a new one.
The River Ore joins the Leven a little upstream of the village.
Transport
There is a railway station in Cameron Bridge, which opened in June 2024 as part of the Levenmouth rail link. There was previously a station at Cameron Bridge around west of the current station, which shut in 1969.
