Scone Abbey

Scone Abbey (originally, Scone Priory) was a house of Augustinian canons based at Scone, Perthshire, Scotland. Varying dates for the foundation have been given, but it was certainly founded between 1114 and 1122. The priory was established by six canons from Nostell Priory in West Yorkshire, under the leadership of Prior Robert, who was the first prior of Scone.

Perth Bridge

Perth Bridge (also known as Smeaton's Bridge and, locally, the Old Bridge) is a toll-free bridge in the city of Perth, Scotland. It spans the River Tay, connecting Perth, on the eastern side of the river, to Bridgend, on its western side, carrying both automotive and pedestrian traffic of West Bridge Street. The bridge was completed in October 1771, which places it in the Georgian era; however, its plaque states the year in which construction began, 1766, as its "built" date.
