Scope and Content Arbroath Abbey, Angus, from north-east This view from the north-east, taken in 1986, shows the north-east corner of the Abbot's House, which was developed from a simple set of apartments over a long period, and survives a succession of uses. The gravel path in the foreground is on the site of the west side of the cloister walk. Arbroath Abbey is particularly famous as the place where the Declaration of Arbroath was signed in 1320. This was a stated case made to the Pope by the barons and other leaders of Scottish society as to why the Scots should be free from English domination. Arbroath Abbey was founded in 1178 by King William the Lion. It was staffed by monks of the Tironensian order from Kelso Abbey, the first Scots abbey of this order, which originated in 1109 at Tiron, near Chartres, in France. The surviving ruined church dates largely from the late 12th and early 13th century. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
