The Cathedral of St Andrew is a historical church in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland, which was the seat of the Bishops, later Archbishops, of St Andrews from its foundation in 1158 until it fell into disuse after the Reformation. It is currently a ruined monument in the custody of Historic Scotland. The ruins indicate the great size of the building at 350 feet. The cathedral was founded to supply more accommodation than the older church of St. Regulus. Work began on the new cathedral in 1158 and continued for over a century. St Rule's tower is located in the Cathedral grounds but predates it, having served as the church of the priory up to the early 12th century.
