(Name at NO 3738 1463) Site of Lady Port (NR)
OS 6"map, Fifeshire, 1st ed., (1854)
(NO 3741 1463) A pictorial plan of Cupar, drawn by Gordon of Rothiemay in 1642 is reproduced. On it a port is shown about half-way along the Lady Wynd controlling the approach from the Lady Bridge. (Siting agrees with above).
Miller states that " the lady Port was at the northern end of the Lady Wynd." (But this is not borne out by his map).
