This is Bell-Baxter High School, Westport, Cupar, Fife!!  This building is now closed and sadly mostly demolished to make way for housing.

Welcome to Rootschat - but how did you find us and how did you know this?

Hi

I know this building because it's my old school and I also lived in Cupar for many years!

Although this is my first post I have been a member of Rootschat since 2007! I have chased my family history for many years and read and enjoy the forum regularly.

In that case I'm glad we finally flushed you out of the shadows.

There's a little chapel, a stone bridge and a thatched cottage still waiting to be identified - at least two of those could be on your doorstep!
