Scope and Content St Andrew's Cathedral and St Rule's Church, St Andrews, Fife The bishopric of St Andrews was refounded by David I in the early 12th century. As intended, its status preserved the Scottish church's independence from the Archbishop of York throughout the Middle Ages, even though it only became an Archdiocese in 1472. The east end of the 12th-century cathedral (left) shows traces of the two rows of original windows replaced by the larger 14th-century window. St Rule's Church (right) is possibly older than the 12th-century date normally assigned to it. There was a religious community at St Andrews by the mid 8th century, and a bishop by the mid 10th century. The Augustinian canons, who replaced the original community in around 1125, flourished until the Reformation. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
