So where would 'jail' be for the Kingsbarns Monopoly?

Kingsbarns?

I don't think there's anywhere obvious. The nearest smaller neighbours would be Boarhills or Dunino.

Maybe you could be sent to stand in the phone box or bus shelter, both of which get subjected to vandalism I'm afraid, even in a wee place like Kingsbarns.

In Fife, I think the place to send someone is the Dunbog Triangle. It exists. I've been there - and returned!
It's a strange, remote place with a triangular village green, with (possibly vandalised) telephone box, a graveyard and... very sparse habitation. I found it quite disturbing. The graveyard was livelier.

I'd have thought Peterhead would be a more obvious one, as it has a jail?

It seems a likely explanation.
