VISITING PITTENWEEM

Pittenweem is a major centre for the fishing fleet, with a busy fish market. It is one of Scotland's best-preserved and most attractive villages, with many historic buildings. The quirky layout of the centre, which took shape over several centuries, with numerous 'Wynds' (alleys), is one of its particular charms. Few Scottish villages have so well preserved their ancient character.

Pittenweem and the surrounding area is particularly rich in castles and mansions. Interesting buildings in Pittenweem include Kellie Lodge, a late 16th century town house that was once the residence of the Earls of Kellie, the parish church that dates from the same period and the ruins of the old Priory.
