Tour Scotland 4K Winter travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes music, North on the B936 route on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to the parish church and cemetery in Auchtermuchty, Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Auchtermuchty Church was first consecrated on 31 March 1245. In 1350, Duncan, the last MacDuff and Earl of Fife, gifted it to the Abbey of Lindores, out of gratitude for his escape at the battle of Durham and from subsequent captivity. At the Reformation the parish was placed under the charge of Alexander Fairny, reader, who held that office from 1567 to 1574. The first Protestant minister, one Henry Leitch, was installed in the parish in 1592. The present church was built on a rising in the town in 1780. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip
