The mercat cross in Culross, on the north shore of the Firth of Forth in Fife. This is one of Scotland's best conserved and most beautiful villages and the nearest thing you'll find in the country to a 16th century time capsule.

Seeing in the weekly #Wikidata news that the CAMRA Pub ID can now be used, I generated a map of pubs in #Scotland. Useful for days out, I'm thinking.

https://w.wiki/E4T9

It is a zoomable clickable map, with colour-coding often helping with a building's history (banks, exchanges, etc.) though with the "pub" blue taking precedence in this snapshot.

It does seem to be largely a map of Wetherspoons' pubs though. I added IDs for inns in #Stirling and #Culross but more needs done.

A sudden blast of sunlight on the quay at Culross. Local monks mined coal from here in the 13th Century.

Culross Abbey: Mellon

If only Gandalf knew about punctuation. 'Speak "friend" and enter", indeed.
Around the north end of Culross Abbey I found this pair of archways, the light in the distance catching the stonework in a pleasing contrasty way. Something about the shape of the foreground arch reminded me of Lord of the Rings.

Culross Abbey: The Banquet

Inside, there's the joy of woodwork, organ music and colour - bright light streaming through the stained-glass windows.

Outside, the window is dull with just patterns of leading visible, surrounded by extures of stone, the lovely diffuse yet contrasty light and shadow and this one decrepit warped plastic chair.

The slightly puzzling ruins of Culross Abbey, standing on a hillside above Culross in Fife. The abbey was founded in 1217 on a site that was believed to have been used for a monastery associated with St Serf and St Theneva in the 500s.

George Bruce, 2nd of Carnock on the tomb he had built for his father, Sir George Bruce, 1st of Carnock.

There wasn't really a 3rd, as this George's son became Earl of Kincardine.

Trying out a family history challenge this year called #52Ancestors involving a blog each week about an ancestor. This week my blog is on my 2 x gt gf John Scotland, Town Officer at #Culross , Fife. It involves a tale of emigration to the US & return. His family went on to serve the town in the role of Town Officer right up to 1974!!
Culross is better known today as a filming location for the television series #outlander.
