Scotland's Holy City: St Andrews, 1450

St Andrews in 1450 is the ecclesiastical heart of Scotland: the vast cathedral stands whole beside the square tower of St Rule, the bishop's castle crouches on the cliff with a sea gate, and a very new university is taking root along South Street. The walk follows the three straight streets that lead to the cathedral, the busy little harbour, and the open links by the sea.

32 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 10 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of St Andrews as it stood in 1450 (“St Andrews”).
