Abstract:
Royalty had been frequent visitors to the guest house of the Abbey of Holyrood throughout the Middle Ages, but from the 15th century there is increasing evidence that the Stewart Kings found the abbey precincts, with their gardens and orchards, a commodious place to stay. The palace underwent major remodelling and refurbishment in the reign of James V and again in 1554 when the Queen Mother, Queen Regent Mary of Guise, restored Holyrood. The building work encompassed not only prestigious accommodation for royalty and its entourage, but also gardens and courtyards and the more mundane essentials such as stables, workshops and storerooms for hay for the king's carthorse. Edinburgh had become effectively the sole capital of Scotland, and the small burgh of Canongate would be increasingly drawn into the limelight of national politics.
