Dysart Harbour Panorama
A panorama taken from the East Pier Extension at Dysart Harbour and stitched from three shots using Microsoft's free download which is called ICE. The metal extension to the main stone pier was constructed after the end of the East Pier was demolished in the mega-storm of 1969. Now the replacement metal structure is rusting badly, with great holes at its base. Money was put aside for a new East Pier as the final part of the £26million, Dysart Regeneration Initiative Program. However, a couple of years ago the SNP/Lib Dem coalition on Fife Council canned the rebuild (which was just about to start) because they appeared to have have used the allotted funds elsewhere in Fife. This led to the loss of a number of substantial National and Heritage grants that were tied into the integrated project that was Dysart Regeneration process. The SNP / Lib Dems no longer have control of Fife Council spending but sadly, the attatched grants have now gone forever! If another big storm demolished ithe end of the pier then Dysart Harbour, a major attraction on the Fife Coastal Path, would probably be forced to close, as might the Harbourmasters House. So no more yachts, fishing from the pier, fishing from boats and lobster/crab catching! Nice one Fife Council as was!
