The surface is principally arable with the exception of the eastern part which abounds in mosses and is colder than the rest. The only village in the parish is Newbyth situated in the southeastern extremity which district has been disjoined from the rest of the parish ecclesiastically, and erected, along with small portions of the adjoining parishes of New Deer & Aberdour, into a parish Quoad Sacra. |
