Map of the UK

Seafield is a small village in West Lothian, Scotland, set among farmland and the rolling countryside that characterises much of the county. It’s largely residential today, with many residents commuting to nearby centres such as Bathgate, Livingston and Edinburgh, but it sits within the region shaped by 19th‑ and early 20th‑century industries.

Historically the area shares West Lothian’s connections to coal and shale‑oil working, and that industrial past colours local architecture and place names; community life tends to revolve around a village hall, church and small local businesses, while agriculture and commuting now dominate the local economy. Modest but rooted, Seafield offers a quiet base with clear links to the broader cultural and industrial story of West Lothian.
