A Son of the Rock

Cupar used to be the county town of Fife but hasn’t been an administrative hub for a long time now. Despite having a supermarket on the edge of town a few traditional shops still remain in the centre – including Luvian’s café /ice cream/wine shop which has nice Art Deco detailing on the roof line and around the doors.

Cupar’s War Memorial is well situated at the edge of a small park and looking straight up one of the two main streets (which together make up a “T” joining at the town cross.) I don’t much go for the memorials with angels on them. The pillars, with 1939 and 1945 now carved on them, redeem this one a bit though.
