Archaeology Notes

NT07NW 34 c. 00 77.

Among 'Incomplete Foundations of the Augustinians', Easson lists Linlithgow: 'From September to December 1503 royal donations to the Augustinian friars here are recorded, e.g. two grants of #7 'to thair bigging (building)'. No evidence is forthcoming to show that this order settled here. That it did not do so seems to be suggested by the attempt soon after to place friars at Manuel in the same vicinity.

D E Easson 1957
