About 2,000 homes in the East Neuk of Fife were without water supplies for several hours on Monday due to a burst pipe.
Scottish Water engineers were called on Monday morning after the pipe burst in a field next to the A917 between St Monans and Pittenweem.
Properties in both villages, as well as Kilconquhar, Elie and Earlsferry, were affected.
A repair has now been carried out and supplies are now returning to normal.

A Scottish Water spokesperson said: “Following reports of loss of supply this morning, teams responded quickly to identify a burst on a 9inch water pipe in a field next to the A917 between St Monans and Pittenweem, and managed to complete repair by around 1pm this afternoon.
“All traffic management has been removed and the road is now fully open.
“We apologise for any inconvenience and would like to thank customers and road users for their patience while these works were carried out.”
