    This is where the Stone of Destiny was originally from and about 42 Kings and Queens of Scotland have been crowned here.
    The Stone was stolen by Edward I of England during the wars of independence in the 1100's after he was asked to decide and appoint who he thought was a rightful heir to the throne of Scotland. The stone was held in Westminster Palace (which became the home of the UK MPs'). Scottish students managed to break into Westminster in the 1950's and returned the Stone to Scotland where it is now displayed in Perth Museum.
    King Charles III was crowned on the Stone in Westminster Abbey during his Coronation to become King. The Stone was then returned back to Perth Museum for safe keeping
    This is a beautiful place and being so close the Peacocks makes for a great day out at one of Scotland's most historic sites
