There is no children\u2019s play area in the village and no public space where people can meet outside and sit together. The Green Space meets those needs and is already being used for village social events. Being next to the Fife Coastal Path, it is also used by walkers to sit and have their lunch.

Now fully restored, it is open and fully and freely accessible. Being located right next to the Fife Coastal Path, it is a significant attraction to passing walkers, who also use the seating in the Green Space area.  \u2022 Using this doocot restoration project as the basis to develop other participative projects which will improve the understanding and appreciation of the local history of the area.  Public benefit will include providing opportunities for older members of the community to come together and share their memories. Examples already achieved under this heading are exhibitions prepared by the local community on the history of the doocots in this area, and the primary schools in Boarhills and Dunino.
