Cupar - Earl Grey Pastoral Charge formed around 1969, from a combination of Cupar, Earl Grey, and Southey preaching points. These three points had originally been part of new United Church Pastoral Charges formed in 1925 (in Abernethy Presbytery): Cupar Pastoral Charge, including Kilshaning; Markinch and Southey Pastoral Charge; and Earl Grey Pastoral Charge, including Gibbs and Fairy Hill. Around 1926, the Fairy Hill preaching point was moved to Markinch Pastoral Charge and Bulyea added to Earl Grey Pastoral Charge. By 1961, Southey had been added to Cupar, along with Hazelwood, and Earl Grey to Longlaketon Pastoral Charge, alongside Bryn Mawr, Craven and Silton.

The name of the 3-point charge was changed to Cupar - Southey - Earl Grey Pastoral Charge on January 25, 1997. It was dissolved July 1, 2012, and divided into Earl Grey Pastoral Charge and Cupar-Southey Pastoral Charge.
