Mort-House, Abbotshall Parish Church, Abbotshall Road, Kirkcaldy

The Mort-House at Abbotshall Parish Church, located on Abbotshall Road in Kirkcaldy, dates from the mid-17th century and later. It features rubble boundary walls, some of which are semicircular-coped, enclosing the church and graveyard, with the Mort-House situated adjacent to the northeast of the boundary.

The earliest stone slab in the graveyard is dated 1658 and commemorates Robert Purrock, a church elder. The site includes several mural monuments, such as a much-eroded corniced stone from 1720, flanked by anthemion-capitalled columns, and a red sandstone stone with a pediment and Doric columns dedicated to John Sang. There is also a block pedimented stone with short Doric columns honoring the Stocks family, who were linen manufacturers.

Gravestones in the graveyard are primarily simple moulded or pedimented apex styles, along with obelisks. Near the Mort-House, there is an eroded stone featuring a cartouche in the pediment and flanking skulls. A headstone located to the northeast of the church door commemorates George Nicol, who died in 1786, and displays a carved hand and plume on one side and gardener's emblems—a spade and rake—on the other. Additional 18th-century stones include one with baker's symbols dated 1744. A distinctive headstone for local stone carver William Taylor, who died in 1881, features an elaborately carved niche. There is also a memorial, erected in 1935 by Pilkington Jackson, of a life-size seated child for child prodigy Marjory Fleming, known as 'Pet Marjorie', with an original stone to the rear reading "M F 1811".

The Mort-House itself is a small rectangular-plan rubble building with modern pantiles, featuring a window to the west that overlooks the graveyard and evidence of a former segmental-headed opening on the same elevation. The entrance is located to the south.

The boundary walls are high and coped with rubble, complemented by square-section, coped ashlar gatepiers to the north. There is a segmental-headed, flat-coped ashlar arch to the west, along with decorative cast-iron gates.
