Tour Scotland video of the now restored Historic archway on visit to Scone Palace by Perth, Perthshire. This ancient Scottish archway, which was almost completely destroyed by a careless delivery van driver, is thought to have once been the entrance to the Augustinian abbey where a succession of Scottish monarchs were crowned, and may have stood since 1114, when the abbey was founded by King Alexander I. The archway took two years to restore.
