SUMMARY:Newbattle Abbey Visit 18 Sep 2025
DESCRIPTION:A private tour of the Abbey and it’s wonderful gardens. Founded as a Cistercian Monastery in 1140 by King David 1st. It then became the Kerr family home in the 16th century and an adult residential college in 1937. The army requisitioned it during World War 2 but opened its doors to a college again in 1950. It has a fascinating history which will be described during the tour. It was her that a Council of Nobles met here in Spring 1320. They drafted a letter asking the Pope to recognise Scotland’s independence and acknowledge Robert Bruce as the lawful king. This letter became The Declaration of Arbroath ! \n\n\n\nThere will also be an opportunity to explore the beautiful Italian Garden. \n\n\n\nThe cost will be approximately £10\, to include tea and biscuits. \n\n\n\nLikely numbers limit two groups of 15.
