East Neuk fishing village of CRAIL.Road down to harbour.
| Description | : | East Neuk fishing village of Crail.
Crail probably dates from at least as far back as the Pictish period. Crail, meaning ‘corner town’, is the oldest of the East Neuk burghs, granted Royal Burgh status in 1310 by King Robert the Bruce. Crail was the gateway to European riches, thriving on trading with Europe’s Low Countries. Its stone-built buildings show the influence of this trade with Europe. |
