Crail Harbour

Highlight • Viewpoint

Crail has been a market town since permission was granted for the market in 1178. The harbour has always been used but the present stone harbour defence was first built in 1610. The current west pier was built in 1828 and includes unusual vertical coursing of the stonework.
Today it's a popular and pretty seaside town with great coastal walking in both directions.
