We circled back to Kinross along the coastal road.

One of the Scottish Kings- it might have been James II or James VI (websites differ, so maybe it was just someone at the Tourist  Board) described the coast of Fife as "a  fringe of gold on a beggars mantle". That says it all really. The sun was going down and we drove from village to village, trying to see as much as we could before the light gave out.

The light was a godsend.

There's been a church at St Monan's since 875. The present building dates from c. 1350.
