<dc:title>East Flisk Chapel / Birkhill, Flisk Wood</dc:title>
<dc:description>There appears to be the remains of a chapel in the southern section of Flisk Wood. Its origins are uncertain. James Gordon of Rothiemay’s 1642 map of Fife appears to show two churches at Flisk. The western one is labelled ‘Flisk Kirk’ and appears to be on the site of the former Flisk Parish Church. However, the eastern site is simply labelled ‘Flisk’ and may be a representation of the chapel in Flisk Wood. In the 1840s there was visible in the woods ‘low ruins’ and an ‘enclosing wall’, which were thought to be associated with a former place of worship. By the 1950s it was noted that the foundations of ‘the chapel’ were ‘under turf’ meanwhile ‘the enclosing bank of the graveyard’ was apparently ‘earthen’ and had been used as a ‘tree-bank’.</dc:description>
