Leuchars (pronounced /ˈluːxərs/ ⓘ or /ˈluːkərz/; Scottish Gaelic: Luachar "rushes") is a town and parish near the north-east coast of Fife in Scotland.
[6] The church has two levels of blind arcading in the Norman style running round the exterior, surmounted by a corbel table with heads of various designs.
The interior has elaborate chancel and apse arches, and a series of powerful beast-heads on the corbels supporting the ribs of the internal vaults.
The town had an adjoining Royal Air Force base, RAF Leuchars, which was established in 1920, and was home to the Eurofighter Typhoon.
On average, Leuchars gets around 700 mm (28 in) of rain each year and 1,573 hours of sunshine, making it one of the driest and sunniest places in Scotland.
