Can it really be 30 years since these photos first appeared in our newspaper, the Fife Free Press?

They featured in the pages across 1992, and capture some of the events and fundraising initiatives staged in Kirkcaldy district that year.

We hope they bring back many great memories.

Thousands flocked to Beveridge Park’s centenary celebrations in October 1992. The turnout came despite some appalling weather - and delighted the organisers. An estimated 8000 people came along and enjoyed a day in the park, and some had a shot on the miniature train which used to be one of its features.
