Culross is a picturesque West Fife village on the north of the River Forth, between Kincardine and High Valleyfield. Legend tells it was founded by St Serf in the Sixth Century, and was the birthplace of St Kentigern (St Mungo). Culross Abbey dates to 1217, and the port bustled with trade from the Netherlands in the 16th and 17th Centuries. Its cobbled streets and buildings from this period frame Culross like a snapshot in time, and Culross Abbey, Palace, Town House and other buildings are now preserved by the National Trust for Scotland, but the Royal Burgh is a modern community, and s1culross.com has been developed to allow residents share their news, views and opinions, make announcements, publicise events and show off their photos and videos.

By Ann Macdonald

Eveyone attending concert by Westminster Chancel Choir from North Carolina, in Culross Abbey this Friday, should be there by 6.45pm and access Culross via Dunfermline to Kincardine Bridge road A985, turning south into B9037 down towards Culross and parking at Abbey House, adjacent to Abbey.

Please avoid village, as it will be impossible for cars to access Abbey due to road closure for Fancy Dress Parade etc.

Police will be on duty and will help with any queries.
