Churches Trains and Shops in Kirkcaldy walk

Hello Hello Hivians and Wednesday Walkers

This was actually missing parts of my walk from last week which you can see in Park Beach Street Heart Walk in Kirkcaldy Saturday.

Today it's a skip back in time to the afternoon of Saturday 27th January and all these pictures have been captured with my smartphone.

Wrap up warm and let's go!

Well this is where we start today on the Wynd.

Through the iron gates and they do tell us the graveyard has a Commonweatlh grave in it.

I must admit I love the work that the Commonwealth war graves commission and the foundation charity do.

Our database contains 1.7 million men and women of the Commonwealth who died during the two world wars. Use our search tools to explore and find out more about them.

Visit their site to know more or watch this video...

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission is a global leader in commemoration. Founded by Royal Charter in 1917, we work on behalf of the Governments of Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom to commemorate the 1.7 million men and women from the Commonwealth who lost their lives in the two World Wars.

Up those stairs we go!

The church is The Auld Kirk in Kirk Wynd, Kirkcaldy in Scotland but today though it is the grounds that we are walking through.

Sometimes I find it fitting to try and take some black and white or monochrome shots.

Mind you my phone camera is pretty mince, not the newest that is for sure!

I am not sure who puts up these maps or what do you call them ... Infographic stones you could almost say. I love them, and they blend in so well with the graveyard.

It tells you some of the larger plots.

They are also well maintained which is so good to see.

On the other side of the graveyard is another church we need to pass by.

Can you recognise where we are going?

Yep to an Aldi.

I need to get some food for tea.

Yes it will be a roast chicken dinner.

The shortest route is the way the crow flies?

I believe it is...

We need to get across there, that is where we are going!

You can see the building we need to get to and meet Mrs T after her crochet class.

Oh how I wish I was a crow, as I ain't walking over those train tracks!

We are saved, yes there are steps leading down to an ...

...underpass

So it is all good, as that is the back of the building we need to go inside.

Yes the main library and war memorial building.
I am not early enough to grab a coffee unfortunately, that will be next time in a fortnight!

This post is par 2 of a January walk of 2024 for #wednesdaywalk which was started by the wonderful @tattoodjay.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!
