About Cupar

Cupar is the former county town and retains its role as an administrative and shopping centre for the settlements that surround it. The town's main streets (as well as others) the Bonnygate and Crossgate offer a wide variety of quality shopping outlets, within an historical environment. Away from the town centre the town is well served with park areas most notably the Cart Haugh, where the newly refurbished bandstand is situated, and the Duffus Park which hosts a range of sporting activities. The River Eden, which runs through the town, has the added attraction of a pleasant nature trail alongside it.
