Description
A shot of Dunfermline Abbey taken from the nearby Pittencrief Park also know as the glen to locals, the Abbey is the burial location of Robert the Bruce minus the heart which lies in Melrose. The reason for this is below
'When he died in 1329 his body was buried at Dunfermline. His heart was removed and taken on the Crusades by the Black Douglas (Sir James), who, just before he was killed in Moorish Spain, hurled it at the enemy.
The heart was recovered and taken back to Melrose Abbey where the new king, David II (Bruce's son), had asked for it to be buried.'
