Anstruther Wester Church.

This former Church stands in its graveyard to the west of the harbour The inside is entirely modernised and used as a public hall The tower is a 16th century bell tower, while most of the rest of the building, it is thought that the newer parts were built over a medieval kirk from 1243 that was dedicated to St. Nicholas. The graveyard surrounds the church to the north, south and east. It contains a number of 17th century memorials, one slab dates from the year 1598, which I failed to spot.
