Pittenweem Harbour

Pittenweem... is a fishing village and civil parish in Fife, on the east coast of Scotland. At the 2001 census, it had a population of 1,747. The name derives from Pictish and Scottish Gaelic. "Pit-" represents Pictish pett 'place, portion of land', and "-enweem" is Gaelic na h-Uaimh, 'of the Caves' in Gaelic, so "The Place of the Caves". The name is rendered Baile na h-Uaimh in modern Gaelic, with baile, 'town, settlement', substituted for the Pictish prefix. The cave in question is almost certainly St Fillan's cave, although there are many indentations along the rocky shores that could have influenced the name. Quoted from Wikipedia

Anstruther Wester Churchyard

The gravestone on the left dates to 1626. Although reduced from its medieval area, the graveyard still contains much of interest – the... stone coffin of St Adrian, table-top tombs bearing carvings of a ship and Masonic symbols between the pillars of Solomon’s temple.
