The first mention of the market cross at Crail is in the Burgh Archives dated 2 October 1552. In a reference to property at Crail, dated 1500-1 (Reg Magni Sig Reg Scot) there occurs 'in vico occidentali supra crucem', which would give ground for belief that there was another cross near the top of the present Crosscauseway.
(For later cross see NO60NW 13).
