About Crail Parish Church
Crail Parish Church is a Church of Scotland parish church on Marketgate in Crail, Fife. Its medieval origins and later alterations give it considerable architectural and historical importance, reflected in its Category A listed status. The surrounding kirkyard walls and gravestones share the same designation.
Parts of the building date from the 12th century, when it had a simple Romanesque nave and chancel. A western tower followed around 1200, with its belfry, parapet and stone spire added about 1500. Inside, arcades rest on rounded columns of varied red sandstone, while surviving 17th-century timberwork and an early Christian carved stone are also preserved. The nave was reconstructed in 1815, and the gallery and chancel were renewed in 1828. Broad pointed windows with clear glazing brighten the interior, which contains a substantial organ. The kirkyard includes memorials from the late 1500s onwards, an ornamented morthouse and a war memorial gateway dating from 1921.
