Looked at Coull as well but couldn't find a village called Coull near markinch. Thanks for the help.
I think you would be better with CLUNY as you thought.
Cluny Castle is near Aboyne and there is a village called Cluny in Fife which is the county (or kingdom) where Markinch is situated.
There is a place called Coul not far from Markinch
...Coull, a collier hamlet in Markinch parish, Fife, 1 3/4mile NW of Markinch town.

This is getting complicated. i have another word c----y. clue is old scots for mucky.if clarty which i think it is, fits in then Coull would fit with the l. If the answer is Cluny then mucky would be
cy---y.Can't think of a word even in old scots or langans.

Going for Coull. Thanks to all.
I bow to your superior intelligence, your majesty.
Coull certainly fits in better with the 'tepid' bit of the clue.
For myself, 'Clarty' looks ok, thus 'Coull'...

...Also "tepid sounding" works ('Cool')
