Substantial ruinsruined, but plenty survives above ground
If you are walking the shore of Loch Leven, the low green island off the south-east end is St Serf’s Inch, and the priory is the small roofless rectangle on it. A Culdee community was here first; David I handed the island to Augustinian canons around 1150, tied to St Andrews. The 12th-century church walls survive, later pressed into service as a shepherd’s shelter, with foundations of a longer range beside them. You cannot land: the island belongs to the national nature reserve and boats keep 200m off it through the breeding season. Look across instead from the shore or from Benarty Hill.
