Dysart Dovecote Crescent
A Memory of Dysart.
Born in Dovecote Crescent in 1944, I remember walking to East Weymss by the Man o the Rock, the sea could be quite wild just past the 'Bing'. I used to help Shanny collect seacoal on his horse and cart, I think he was the brother of Jimmy Shand or some relation, anyway he came from East Weymss as well as Jimmy. Have seen recent pictures of Dovecote Crescent which is now completely reclaimed by sea. When we lived there on high tides the residents on the bottom of the terrace had to move upstairs to neighbours till sea returned. Didnt leave much the gardens afterwards, we had to move to Glenrothes as the terrace became uninhabitable.
