Giffordtown & its neighbours, Edentown & Charlottetown, are the largest settlements in the District, which stretches from Dunshelt in the west to Ladybank in the east and includes Birnie & Gaddon Lochs, Kinloch plus a few outlying farms.
The term 'howe' means hollow or low-lying, and this area, which is central to the Howe of Fife, matches this description well.
The flat land here is dotted with farms. It's a peaceful place to come home to and a great area in which to enjoy the outdoors (when the weather is friendly!)
