The Scottish Gliding Centre & Portmoak Priory site
Situated on the eastern shores of Loch Leven, the Scottish Gliding Centre is the largest gliding club in Scotland. It operates all year round from a grass airfield and membership is open to all. Once home to the early Christian Culdees, Portmoak Chapel dates back to about 850AD. The monks were of Irish origin and established a monastery on nearby St. Serf's Island in Loch Leven. We will continue to add to our knowledge of this site through archaeological investigations this summer. The vestiges of the chapel and graveyard have been recently restored by the Kinross-shire Civic Trust.
