Balmalcolm village
The village was built in the 18th century and it is a local farming centre.[1]
It is home to a large vegetable packing and distribution factory Kettle Produce.[2] It was the centre of some controversy in the late 1990s when a high level of nitrates were found in the local borehole, which was attributed to the intensive farming of the local area with green vegetables.
