Jim Clark in the 20th Century and Thomas Chalmers in the 19th are
two of those who have gone out from the rural obscurity of Kilmany
to wider fame. It is one of the historic parishes of North East
Fife dating back to the beginning of the 13th Century, if not a
little earlier. However, its name implies the existence of a
Christian community here at least from the 8th Century. Though it
has always been an agricultural area, in the Middle Ages it
contained an important base for the Earls of Fife whose hereditary
role was to crown the Scottish Kings. From 1450, for over four
hundred years it had a close association with St Salvator's College
in the University of St Andrews. Set in the quiet beauty of
unspoilt countryside, its story still reflects the turbulence of
Scotland's past. The author lives in the village.
