St Andrews Cathedral, begun in 1158 and consecrated in 1318 before Robert the Bruce, was once the largest church ever built in Scotland until a Reformation mob ransacked it in 1559, leaving the ruins that still stand today. The University of St Andrews, founded in 1413, remains Scotland’s oldest, and the Old Course, played over by the Society of St Andrews Golfers since 1754, draws golfers from around the world. A flat battery near the Cathedral ruins, a breakdown by the Old Course, or a car in the University quarter all need an operator who knows the town, which is exactly what car recovery in St Andrews KY16 arranges through CityGrip.

Our network knows the key St Andrews routes: the A91 and A917, and the approach to St Andrews Cathedral, whose construction began in 1158 and was finally completed and consecrated on 5 July 1318 in the presence of King Robert the Bruce, making it, at roughly 119 metres long, the largest church ever built in Scotland. The University of St Andrews, granted university status by papal bulls issued on 28 August 1413, is the oldest university in Scotland and the third-oldest in the English-speaking world after Oxford and Cambridge.
In June 1559, during the Scottish Reformation, a Protestant mob incited by the preaching of John Knox ransacked the cathedral’s interior, and it has stood in ruin ever since. A darker episode had already played out at St Andrews Castle: Cardinal David Beaton had the Protestant preacher George Wishart burnt at the stake outside its walls on 1 March 1546, was himself murdered inside the castle less than three months later, and the resulting 1546-47 siege ended only when a French naval force bombarded the castle into surrender. The Society of St Andrews Golfers, founded on 14 May 1754, still plays over the Old Course, which was changed to the now-standard 18-hole round in 1764. Car recovery in St Andrews KY16 tells the Old Course’s golf-season crowds apart from the University’s term-time pattern.

Get to safety
Pull over as far from traffic as you can, switch on your hazard lights and, if it is safe, leave the vehicle from the side away from passing traffic.
