Definitely
the
most
picturesque
harbour
in
the
East
Neuk,
it
is
best
viewed
from
the
West
Braes,
as
you
come
in
to
Crail
from
Anstruther.
This
delightful
harbour
dates
from
about
1500
and
was
enlarged
and
improved
in
the
19th
century.
Vessels
once
traded
from
here
with
the
Low
Countries
and
the
Baltic.
Surrounding
the
harbour
are
houses
dating
back
to
the
17th
Century,
with
white
walls
and
red
pan
tiled
roofs.
One
of
these
used
to
be
the
customs
house
and
on
the
side
has
a
plaque
bearing
the
town
arms.
The
harbour
has
even
been
recreated
in
a
detailed scaled model in Lego Land!
In
the
harbour
are
a
few
small
boats
that
go
partan
(edible
crabs)
and
lobster
fishing,
which
are
sold
at
the
harbour and at the various fish merchants and sheds throughout the East Neuk villages.
The
Tower
Collection
is
a
book
of
10
dances
all
by
Arnold
Grimes
and
the
recommended
music
for
this
dance
is
‘Ballochmyle Brig’. (Colin Dewar plays it as the lead tune for
Kinfauns Castle
S5x32).
