Historical Note

In the 1300's the proprietor of Newton of Nydie granted a charter to the monks of Balmerino to quarry stone and to have it transported for the purpose of building the famous "Balmerino Abbey" which lies on the South bank of the river Tay. The stone was also used for a number of fine buildings in St. Andrews. The last stone quarried on the site was used to build the first hanger at the nearby Royal Air Force station at "Leuchars."
