St Fillan`s Cave

"Built into a sandstone outcrop above Pittenweem harbour is a natural underground cave linked to the 7th century missionary, St Fillan, who is said to have lived here for several years around AD 640.  Inside the Y-shaped cave is a stone altar where occasional services are still held today".

The cave gives it`s name to the village.  Pittenweem comes from the Gaelic meaning "place of the cave".

We pass this often as it is on one of the wynds that run from the high street down to the harbour.

Another sunny, dry day here.  Doors and windows open with Geordie coming and going as he liked.  Unfortunately it seems to make him more excited and worked up.  He barked at people passing by, although the street is about 2 or 3 car lengths away.  He sounds ferocious and I don`t want him doing that.  He can bark when someone comes to the door, but he must stop fairly quickly.  Lots to work on.
