Aberdours future is bright thanks to a new heritage centre. It will open to the public in Aberdour railway station on Friday July 28. Two vacant rooms in the station building have been refurbished and fitted out for exhibitions and displays, serving as a hub for a variety of activities in and around the village. A steering group, under the auspices of Aberdour Community Council, planned and oversaw the development of the centre with the support of many local volunteers. The new centre has been made possible through fundraising activities in the Forthside village over the past two years. Bill Rennie, the chairman of the Aberdour Heritage Centre steering committee, said generous grant contributions had come from the Heritage Lottery Fund, the Railway Heritage Trust, the Stations Communities Regeneration Fund, Fife Environment Trust and local organisations.
