In the past, any reasonable-sized place popular with visitors would need to have public toilet facilities. Lundin Links and Lower Largo were no exception.
The Fife County Council invitation to tender from 1936 for the building of a public convenience at Lower Largo (shown here) could refer to either the disused building pictured above or to the toilets at the Temple car park (still in use today). A similar tender notice was posted in 1933 for another unspecified site in Lower Largo.
The building shown above, on Harbour Wynd, has not been in use as public toilets for some time but had been referred to as a 'street sweepers bothy' until recently when the council sold the building/plot off at auction earlier this year. There also used to be public toilets on the lane leading down to the beach from the top of Drummochy Road. Of course, these days there are fewer and fewer public toilet facilities in general. If you know of others that existed in the past in Lower Largo and Lundin Links, or when these closed, please comment.
