A memorial to five West Wemyss residents who died in a sea mine tragedy during the second world war will be unveiled on Sunday.
Ahead of the unveiling, there will be a service at St Adrian’s Church led by the Reverend Wilma Cairns at 9.45am.
Refreshments will be available in the church hall after the service and the memorial stone is to be unveiled at 11am.
Kirriemuir sculptor Bruce Walker created the memorial, which is in the shape of a sea mine and bears the names of the victims of the tragedy.
Pithead worker Peter Graham, who was just 15, and coal miners Colin Smart, George Storrar, James Anderson and David Laing lost their lives after the device exploded near Lady’s Rock.
The sea mine had been washed up on the shore.
It is believed the group was trying to move the mine to prevent it being carried by the tide towards the village, where it could have claimed more lives.
Jake Drummond, who has been involved in establishing the memorial, said, “We expect a good turnout and the church will hold only 150 at a push.
“Regulars will number around 50, so I suggest that you get in early to avoid being left at the door.”
