Arncroach is a small village situated in the east of Fife, four miles inland of the fishing village of Pittenweem and around 10 miles away from St Andrews, on the east coast of Scotland. The village green is named after Louise Lorimer.[1] Arncroach is within the parish of Carnbee. Situated about 1/4 of a mile from Arncroach is Kellie Castle, formerly the seat of the Earl of Kellie, and is also where the famous Lorimer family lived. The village saw the installation of the first wind turbine in the East Neuk area of Fife, directly adjacent to the Gillingshill Nature Reserve.
