| Abstract: | The foundation of the Abbey of Culross is dated to 1217 in a charter granted by Malcolm, Earl of Fife. The presence of three Celtic stones in the churchyard and links to the legends of St Serf and St Kentigern hint at the presence of an earlier church on the site. The discovery of a fifteenth-century transumpt or copy prompted the translation of many earlier charters contained therein. Later documents include a monks' charter of 1568. | ||||
