Tour Scotland travel photography of St Athernase Church and graveyard on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to Leuchars, Fife, Scotland. The chancel and half-round apse date from the 12th century with the exterior featuring blind arcades with typical Norman arches. The church, dedicated to the little known St Athernase, was granted by Ness, Lord of Lochore, to the canons of St Andrews in 1185. Around 1700 a belfry was added, and in 1858 restoration was carried out to the nave.
