Tour
Caiplie Caves
Midway
between Kilrenny and Crail on the Fife Coastal Walk the red sandstone
was cut out by waves in post-glacial times when the lower raised
beach was being formed. Monks and pilgrims en route to St Andrews
carved crosses in the caves and today local children still try
to throw stones through the hole in the southwesterly cliff in
an attempt to make a wish come true. The farm of Caiplie stands
on the upper beach level between the coast and the A 917 road.
