Crawford Priory, Category B listed building in Springfield, Scotland
Crawford Priory features octagonal turrets, large windows, and stone walls standing among the Scottish countryside near the River Eden in Fife.
The structure evolved from Crawford Lodge, built in 1758 by the 21st Earl of Crawford, into a Gothic style mansion through renovations in the early 1800s.
Lady Mary Lindsay Crawford established a pet cemetery on the grounds, including a headstone for her favorite deer, reflecting the period's aristocratic lifestyle.
The ruins stand between Pitlessie and Springfield villages, approximately 3 miles southwest of Cupar, requiring careful navigation of local paths.
The mansion contains a spiral iron staircase within its walls, now covered by fallen debris from the partially collapsed ceiling.
