[situation] About 1/4 of a mile N.W. [North West] of the Town of Cupar.
The site of and Church formerly the Parish Church of Cupar. it stood within an old enclosed grave yard, on what is now part of the estate of Springfield - Save that it was the Parish Church and stood within a grave yard, there is no local tradition connected with it the date of its erection or when it became an abandoned place of worship or ruin is not locally known. in 1820 the last remnants of its foundation with large quantities of human bones were turned up by some workmen employed at agricultural purposes on its site which is at present under cultivation. In Leighton's Hist. [History] of Fife it is thus noticed P.12 [Page 12] The Parish Church of Cupar of Old, belonged to Priory of St. Andrews, - in 1415 this building had become ruinous, and in that year the Prior of St. Andrews erected within the burgh a new Church for the better accommodation of the inhabitants - he also says The Church of Cupar originally stood at some distance from the Town, to the North at a place formerly called the "Old Kirkyard" |

[Note to Title] G [German] Text.
[Note] Note. as this object was the parish church of Cupar, the proper name "Cupar Church" is adopted as this term will more properly designate it and is the correct name.
[Quotation] "In the same manner has the burial ground of the parish of Cupar which lay at a remoter period at a distance of fully a mile to the north west of the town and of the present burial ground where the church also stood been converted again into common earth and scarcely does a vestige remain to show where it was. At the time of the last account it formed part of what was the glebe of the first minister of the parish. An Excambion* has since been made to accommodate the proprietor of Springfield in whose policy it lies. With the exception of its being a little more elevated than the surrounding field nothing remains to tell the passing stranger that the dead lie there. To shew however the effect of prejudice upon the mind it may be noticed that there are still individuals to be found who have an unwillingness to pass the spot under night."
"The present burial ground having been set apart and consecrated in 1415 when the church was removed from its former situation," etc. New Stat, Acct [Statistical Account] of Fife PP 5.6 |
