Scope and Content View of Parish Church, Marketgate, Crail, Fife Crail was created a royal burgh in 1310. St Mary's, a large aisled medieval church, has 12th-century origins, but dates mainly from when it became a collegiate church in 1517, with alterations in 1815, 1828 and 1963. The small window in the nave roof (right) indicates the line of the former clerestory which was lost during late 18th-century alterations. To the left is the 13th-century western tower surmounted by an octagonal stone spire added in the 16th century. Collegiate churches were endowed for the support of priests whose principal duty was to say masses for the souls of the founders and their families. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
