Christie Burial Enclosure, Scoonie Old Parish Church, Scoonie Brae, Leven

The Christie Burial Enclosure, likely dating from the 16th century, was originally the session house of Old Scoonie Kirk and was converted into a roofless burial enclosure after 1775. It features large ashlar blocks and ashlar quoins, with keystoned segmental-headed openings that have heavily dressed voussoirs on the inside. There is a broad entrance arch to the west and an unglazed window to the south. Inside, there are memorials and headstones belonging to the Christie family on the inner elevations.

Surrounding the burial enclosure to the west is a graveyard containing 17th, 18th, and 19th century headstones, primarily made of weathered local sandstone. The headstones are mostly of a simple moulded apex style, with some classical and obelisk monuments from the 18th and 19th centuries. Notable commemorative stones include a finely carved 'coped stone' from 1641, featuring skulls flanking an hourglass and Latin inscriptions; a 1824 memorial to David Thomson, 'Ship Master Dubby-side', adorned with a ship's anchor; a 1836 stone with a sailing ship on the front, erected by James Gourlay Shipmaster of Leven in memory of his daughter Mary and son Thomas Gourlay of Banbeath; and a tablestone on moulded pedestals.

The site is enclosed by extensive coped rubble boundary walls, terrace walls, and low saddleback-coped walls with inset railings. The main entrance features quadrant walls and three square-section ashlar gatepiers, each with a base course, cavetto cornice, pyramidal cope, and large ball finial. The entrance is completed with decorative ironwork gates for both vehicular and pedestrian access.
