Tour
St Serf's Tower
Located
in Dysart, Fife, the St. Serf's Tower useds to be the tower
of St Serf's Church . Dedicated in 1245 by Bishop de Bernham
it had been a place of worship for many years before. However
by 1800 the church had fallen into disrepair, and with costly
repairs it was abandoned in favour of a new church. The main building
of the church was destroyed when a new road was built, leaving
the tower as the ony remains of the church. With 103 steps to
the top, it provides panoramic views of the area and was used
as a lookout during the First and Second Wars.
