The A71 through Breich

Breich is a small village lying in the western part of West Lothian in Scotland. It lies on the A71, the Edinburgh to Ayrshire road, which also goes to the large town of Livingston 7 miles to the east. It is situated at the junction of the A706, to Lanark, Bathgate and Linlithgow.

The village consists mainly of a single row of houses by the roadside (& some new builds behind the single row) and has one pub. It also has a Roadside Snack Bar called Big T's at the Breich Cross layby. Breich railway station is on the Shotts Line, and is served by one eastbound and two westbound trains per day. A nearby coal bing (spoil heap) was used as a speedway training track in the late 1960s.
