Scope and Content Left end-tower of south addition to Old Library, St Mary's College, St Andrews, Fife St Mary's College was founded in 1537 by James Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews. Since its initial completion in 1544 (with the help of French masons employed on king's palace at Falkland), the college has been expanded and modernised. This shows the ogee roofed tower on the left of earliest block of the south addition to the Old Library. This was built by W W Robertson in 1889-90. Its Jacobean Renaissance design was derived from 16th-century architecture. Historical styles, like interpretations of early Renaissance architecture, became popular in the 19th-century because they were supposed to reflect national, rather than Classical, architectural traditions.
