Inverkeithing Friary, formally known as the Hospitium of the Grey Friars, is a 14th-century friary building and gardens located Inverkeithing, Fife, Scotland.[1]
The surviving friary building is considered to be the finest remaining example of a medieval friary building in Scotland.[2] The building was restored in the 1930s and is now a Category A listed historic site by Historic Environment Scotland.[3]
The building now features as a focal point on the Fife Pilgrim Way, a long-distance footpath commemorating the journey of pilgrims through Fife during the medieval era.[4] It is now used as a community centre.
