However, there may have been Christian activity here at an earlier date. The eastern end of the church has a remarkably fine Romanesque apse and chancel, with elaborate external arcading. The church has remained in continuous use since the twelfth century. The octagonal bell tower was added in the eighteenth century, meanwhile most of the nave was rebuilt in the nineteenth century. Further work was carried out by Reginald Fairlie around the beginning of the First World War. Leuchars Parish Church has a number of memorials associated with the nearby RAF base. The parish of Leuchars is now united with Tayport, but as of 2023 remained a place of worship. 1180 Natalia Nikitin Site 264 11/09/2023 02/26/2024 01:47:36 pm Corpus of Scottish Medieval Parish Churches, entry for ‘Leuchars Parish Church’: https://arts.st-andrews.ac.uk/corpusofscottishchurches/site.php?id=165157#TT_button [Accessed February 2024].
