Towns & Villages of Fife Towns & Villages of Fife In the course of our research in FIFE, many of us come across names of Villages that are unfamiliar to us, and on occasions the whereabouts of these Villages is not indicated. The following list includes the names of some FIFE towns and villages, with the name of the Parish they are to be found in, in the column alongside. It is by no means a complete listing of all villages in FIFE, as it is sometimes difficult to interpret what constitutes a village. If you have come across a place name in Fife and you are unable to determine its whereabouts, then please e-mail us and we will help you if we can.

  • News Release
    Press Office Threadneedle Street London EC2R 8AH T 020 7601 4411 F 020 7601 5460 [email protected] www.bankofengland.co.uk 17 June 2009 Dunfermline Resolution: Announcement of the Preferred Bidder for the Social Housing Lending Business The Bank of England has selected Nationwide Building Society as the preferred bidder for the social housing loans and related deposits from housing associations (the 'Business') held by the Bank of England's wholly- owned subsidiary, DBS Bridge Bank Limited. This follows a competitive auction process conducted by the Bank of England, in accordance with the Code of Practice issued by HM Treasury under the Banking Act 2009. The Business had previously been transferred from Dunfermline Building Society ('Dunfermline') to DBS Bridge Bank Limited while a permanent home for the Business was sought. The transfer of the Business to the bridge bank took place on 30 March 2009 at the same time as the sale of certain core parts of Dunfermline to Nationwide Building Society. Dunfermline was then placed into the Building Society Special Administration Procedure. It is business as usual for the Business's customers. They can contact the Business in the usual way and should continue to make repayments as normal. Customers of other parts of the former Dunfermline Building Society's businesses now owned by Nationwide, or operated out of the Building Society Special Administration Procedure, are unaffected. The decision to select Nationwide Building Society as the preferred bidder followed advice from the Bank of England's Financial Stability Committee and consultation with the FSA and HM Treasury in accordance with the Banking Act 2009.

  • Obarski Family
    The Last Shop in Earlsferry This article is based on a talk about the Obarski Family given by Irene Stevenson to the Elie and Earlsferry History Society on 13 February 2020 (the difference in the name Obarski and Obarska is explained by Polish convention of female surnames ending in …ska when the male form is …ski). I have been asked to give a talk on the village experiences of the Obarski family. This will be mainly about ‘Henry and Elsie’ as most people in Elie and Earlsferry will remember them. My name is Irene Stevenson. My Maiden name was Urquhart and Henry was my step-father, my mother’s second husband. I realise that quite a lot of people do not know that, and it is a credit to my family that I was recognised to be very much part of the Obarski family. I think I still qualify as the only person to give this talk! Below are some photographs and will be how most will remember Henry and Elsie. Henry came here during the war and like many others, he never talked about his war experiences. I do know that he was involved in Operation Market Garden at Arnhem. I have read much about this but I am not here to give a talk on Arnhem. If you have seen the film “A Bridge Too Far” or read the book, you will know about the awful things that happened there. I was well aware that he did suffer terribly from shell-shock. We had to be so careful not to make sudden noises, bang doors, etc.
