THIS week's Down Memory Lane photographs come from one of our exiles Hazel Thompson.

Hazel is a former Ballingry lady who went south with her family more than 40 years ago and now stays in Northampton.

These pictures are all from the Benarty area show one of the trams that used to ply the route between Lochgelly and Cowdenbeath.

Another is believed to be a shot of pithead lassies from the Mary Colliery.

There is a shot of Lochore Castle, which has been in the news over the past few years being prepared to be floodlit, and having a history board connected to the promotional facility. This shot will be at least 50 years old.

The other picture is a well known local business from the 50 or 60 years back.

If you have any old photographs you would like to see in Down Memory Lane send them to editorial@centralfifetimes.co.uk or take them to the Times Office, 17 Bank Street, Lochgelly, on a Monday or a Friday.
