Tour Scotland Photograph Pulpit St Monans Church
Tour Scotland photograph of the Pulpit in the old church in St Monans, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. This church which is one of the finest remaining from the Middle Ages in Scotland, was built by King David II Bruce, born 1329, died 1371, initially for a small house of Dominican friars. It later became the Church of Scotland parish church. Though the church may never have been finished, it has a choir and transepts, with a short spire over the crossing, but lacks a nave, it has many features of architectural interest, notably the fine stone vaulting in the choir and the plain but handsome sedilia. White-washed throughout internally, the church is particularly light and attractive among ancient Scottish churches.
