The
first part of the day is
absolutely
flat across the Howe of Fife. 'Howe' is an anglicised version
of Scots 'haugh', low-lying land by a river: in this case the
River Eden. Well, pilgrims expect paradise - or am I too
obtuse? Beyond Newton of Falkland, Kingskettle, and Balmalcolm –
where Muddy
Boots Restaurant is recommended – we head up Down Law,
via Kettlehill and Burnturk, using a sunken lane. We pass Chance
Inn. The inn where horses were changed has gone: Change
Inn. Soon, we do find an inn in Craigrothie, but
presently continue to Ceres [say "seeriss"] on an ancient pilgrim
route. Try to visit their folk museum. |
