[Quotation]
"The Church of Ceres, previous to the reformation, was a rectory which, with its tiends, belonged to the provostry of Kirkheugh, a religious house in St. Andrews. Besides the principal altar there was a chapel or altarage dedicated to St. Ninian, the patronage of which belonged to the family of Craighall. The present church was built on the site of the old one, in 1806. It stands upon a rising ground between the old part of the village and the suburbs of Bridgend of Glaidney Cotton." Leighton's Hist [History] of Fife VolII [Volume 2] p. 252

Ordnance Survey - Fife and Kinross counties

Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the counties of Fife in the east of Scotland and Kinross in central Scotland. The boundaries of these counties were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
