An attractive hamlet with narrow lanes in NE Fife, Collessie is situated on a minor road just north of the A91, 5 miles (8 km) west of Cupar. Overlooking the Howe of Fife, its ancient Parish Church (rebuilt 1838-39) stands on a hillock at the centre of a settlement containing several well-preserved 17th, 18th, and 19th Century weaving cottages, some with thatched roofs. Designated a conservation area in 1986, it has a primary school dating from 1846.
