John Knox's Pulpit is a prominent sea stack or coastal rock formation located along the coast of Fife, Scotland, composed primarily of Old Red Sandstone, dating to the Devonian period (around 400–360 million years ago). It is notable for its striking coastal profile and historical or cultural associations, as suggested by its name, though specific details about its formation or naming remain locally anecdotal.
