Local knowledge — Private Hire in Kelty
Kelty is a former mining village in west Fife, sitting between Dunfermline and Cowdenbeath on the edge of the Fife coalfield. The village grew rapidly in the late nineteenth century as the local collieries expanded, and the mining industry shaped its character and community for over a hundred years. The last local pit closed in the 1960s, but Kelty retains a strong community identity. The village is close to Lochore Meadows Country Park, one of the largest country parks in Scotland. Joe Maxi Taxis serves Kelty with airport transfers and journeys across Fife and Edinburgh.

About Kelty
- Kelty was one of the most important mining communities in the Fife coalfield, with several collieries operating in and around the village from the 1870s to the 1960s. The Lindsay Colliery, which opened in 1874, was one of the deepest pits in Fife and employed over 1,000 men at its peak.
- Lochore Meadows Country Park, a short drive from Kelty, was created on the site of the former Lochore Colliery and its bing. The 1,200-acre park includes Loch Ore, a beach, woodland, a golf course, and a visitor centre, and is one of the most successful examples of post-industrial land reclamation in Scotland.
- Benarty Hill, which rises to 356 metres above Kelty, is one of the most prominent landmarks in west Fife. The hill offers panoramic views across the Fife coalfield, Loch Leven, and the Lomond Hills, and is a popular walking destination for residents of the surrounding villages.
- Kelty Hearts FC, the local football club, has been a fixture of the community since 1876 and has competed in the Scottish Football League since 2021, when they won promotion from the Lowland League. The club's rise through the non-league pyramid has been one of the most remarkable stories in Scottish football in recent years.
