A breeze off the North Sea lifts the edges of your coat as the small group gathers next to the Martyr's Memorial on The Scores. Cobbled lanes, the slow arc of church spires and the distant hummed rhythm of golfers on the Old Course frame the first steps of this short, sharply observed walk. Your guide moves from stone to story—pointing out a burned 16th‑century martyr site, the austere ruins of St Andrews Castle, and the university buildings where centuries of debate shaped modern Scotland.
