Work has begun on a new £2.7 million pub restaurant project in Fife.

The new Marston's restaurant is being built on a 0.6-hectare site at John Smith Business Park in Kirkcaldy. The development is scheduled to be completed in June.

Once finished, around 45 full-time and part-time jobs will be created.

Adrian Blackburn, Acquisition Manager for Marston's, said: “The development is set to feature a new 150-seater individually designed premises with a 57-space car park, as well as external seating terraced areas, a children's external play area and beer gardens."

Cllr Lesley Laird added: "This facility will support the further development of the John Smith Business Park by providing much needed amenities for local businesses, as well as visitors to the region and local people. Marston's further investment in Fife is very much welcomed, as is the new employment opportunities that it will create."
