Ladybank might well have remained 'Lady's Bog' (the name which the monks of Lindores Abbey gave the area when they came to cut peat here.) It's thanks to the railway junction, built when the town developed in the latter part of the 19th century, that it is now called Ladybank (thankfully, a little more attractive!) The town was designated a burgh in 1878 and developed linen and maltings industries.
