  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.

It outlines the reasons it is designated as an SSSI and provides guidance on how its special natural features should be conserved or enhanced. This Statement does not affect or form part of the statutory notification and does not remove the need to apply for consent for operations requiring consent. We welcome your views on this statement. Natural features of Condition of feature Balmerino to Wormit Shore SSSI (and date monitored) Old Red Sandstone Igneous Favourable, maintained (October 2006) Description of the site Balmerino to Wormit Shore site of special scientific interest (SSSI) on the southern shore of the Firth of Tay between Balmerino and Wormit, Fife, provides an excellent section through lavas and associated sedimentary rocks which are part of the same group of volcanic rocks that make up the Ochil Hills. These rocks were formed about 410 million years ago, the lavas being erupted from fissures onto low ground or into lakes and rivers. During periods of no volcanic activity sedimentary rocks formed from a mixture of broken lava fragments that were heavily waterworn by the action of rivers that flowed across the surface of the lavas, resulting in pebbles of volcanic origin which were then cemented together into conglomerates by particles of sand deposited in lava cracks.

  • Royal Piety in Thirteenth-Century Scotland
    Page 1 of 26 Royal Piety in thirteenth-century Scotland: the religion and religiosity of Alexander II (1214-49) and Alexander III (1249-86) Michael Penman (University of Stirling) Introduction It is perhaps inevitable that both the public and personal piety of Scotland’s thirteenth- century kings should appear, at first, unremarkable in contrast to that of the long-reigning Henry III of England and Louis IX of France. Henry’s consuming spiritual and material investment at Westminster Abbey in the cult of his ancestor, Edward the Confessor, and, from 1247, the associated veneration at that house of a Holy Blood relic, were but the most outward signs of a deep personal faith wedded tightly to Plantagenet political ends. The studies of David Carpenter, Paul Binski, Nicholas Vincent, Sarah Dixon-Smith and others have revealed in Henry a commitment to a wide, varied and costly round of religious building as well as daily and annual observances through masses, alms-giving and ritual commemoration.1 Many of these practices were continued by Henry’s son: as Michael Prestwich has illustrated, Edward I’s rule can also be shown to reflect a strong personal as well as heavily politicised faith.2 Nonetheless, the contemporary and historical reputations of both these English monarchs have always struggled to compete with that of the ‘most Christian’ French king. Louis was a charismatic religious exemplar, canonised in 1297, but 1 P. Binski, Westminster Abbey and the Plantagenets: Kingship and the Representation of Power, 1200-1400 (London, 1995); D.A.

  • The Use of the Name Scot in the Central Middle Ages Part 2: Scot As a Surname, North of the Firth of Forth
    The Use of the Name Scot in the Central Middle Ages Part 2: Scot as a surname, north of the Firth of Forth Matthew H. Hammond University of Glasgow1 The first part of this article (Hammond 2007) examined the use of the second name Scot as a by-name in the central middle ages and explored the contexts for the coining of this ethnonymic among three groups of people: merchants, clerics and knights. The remaining two parts of the article will consider the use of the name Scot as a hereditary surname, asking why families adopted the surname Scot, what contexts they operated in and how their naming practices changed across generations. Part 2 will take in turn three case studies of families based north of the Forth-Clyde isthmus who used the surname Scot – those based at Allardice KCD, Monorgan PER and Balwearie FIF. Part 3, in a future issue, will examine Scot families based in southern Scotland. I Scot of Allardice KCD The text of a charter of King William the Lion dated 16 October 1198 at Stirling, which survives only in an official transumpt of the original charter made in 1703 (NRS, GD 49/1), records the gift of Allardice (Arbuthnott parish) KCD to Walter son of Walter Scot ‘for the service of one archer with horse and hauberk and the performance of common aid due from thirteen oxgangs of land’ (RRS ii no. 404; H1/6/372).2 This was apparently a charter of succession, by which Walter Scot the younger succeeded to the estate of his father, who had recently died.
