ROBERT II of SCOTLAND - WikiVidi Documentary
Robert II reigned as King of Scots from 1371 to his death as the first monarch of the House of Stewart. He was the son of Walter Stewart, 6th High Steward of Scotland and of Marjorie Bruce, daughter of the Scottish king Robert the Bruce by his first wife Isabella of Mar. Edward Bruce, younger brother of Robert the Bruce, was named heir to the throne, but he died without legitimate children on 3 December 1318 in a battle near Dundalk in Ireland. Marjorie by this time had died in a riding accident – probably in 1317. Parliament decreed her infant son, Robert Stewart, as heir presumptive,, but this lapsed on 5 March 1324 on the birth of a son, David, to King Robert and his second wife, Elizabeth de Burgh. Robert Stewart inherited the title of High Steward of Scotland on his father's deat...

Sea Kayaking Bass Rock - July 2024
Sited in the Firth of Forth, rising 107 metres above sea level, Bass Rock could easily be mistaken for an iceberg from a distance. In fact, this immense chunk of carboniferous rock is given its white glaze by the thousands of gannets – 150,000 in the peak breeding season – that nest there. Unsurprisingly, Bass Rock is home to the largest gannet colony in the world, earning it Sir David Attenborough’s claim to be one of the ‘wildlife wonders of the world’.
Over time, this volcanic crag, protected by the waters of the firth, has served many purposes. In the seventh century, it was a Christian retreat and home to St Baldred of Tyninghame, the ‘Apostle of the Lothians’. Sometime after 1058, the Lauder family established a castle on the rock, which later offered protection to James, son of Rob...

From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
As a Scottish history tour guide people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation if your from the US. So I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

Sited in the Firth of Forth, rising 107 metres above sea level, Bass Rock could easily be mistaken for an iceberg from a distance. In fact, this immense chunk of carboniferous rock is given its white glaze by the thousands of gannets – 150,000 in the peak breeding season – that nest there. Unsurprisingly, Bass Rock is home to the largest gannet colony in the world, earning it Sir David Attenborough’s claim to be one of the ‘wildlife wonders of the world’.
Over time, this volcanic crag, protected by the waters of the firth, has served many purposes. In the seventh century, it was a Christian retreat and home to St Baldred of Tyninghame, the ‘Apostle of the Lothians’. Sometime after 1058, the Lauder family established a castle on the rock, which later offered protection to James, son of Robert III. Bass Rock also has a strong history as a prison and played a key strategic role in control of the Firth of Forth.
Today, Bass Rock is uninhabited, except for its many feathered residents! With jagged rocks that are beaten by the waves in stormy weather, the ruins of an ancient chapel, and the remains of the castle, the site has a distinctly wild and forsaken atmosphere – the obvious contrast being the charming lighthouse that was erected in 1902 on the site of the castle keep.

Sited in the Firth of Forth, rising 107 metres above sea level, Bass Rock could easily be mistaken for an iceberg from a distance. In fact, this immense chunk of carboniferous rock is given its white glaze by the thousands of gannets – 150,000 in the peak breeding season – that nest there. Unsurprisingly, Bass Rock is home to the largest gannet colony in the world, earning it Sir David Attenborough’s claim to be one of the ‘wildlife wonders of the world’.
Over time, this volcanic crag, protected by the waters of the firth, has served many purposes. In the seventh century, it was a Christian retreat and home to St Baldred of Tyninghame, the ‘Apostle of the Lothians’. Sometime after 1058, the Lauder family established a castle on the rock, which later offered protection to James, son of Robert III. Bass Rock also has a strong history as a prison and played a key strategic role in control of the Firth of Forth.
Today, Bass Rock is uninhabited, except for its many feathered residents! With jagged rocks that are beaten by the waves in stormy weather, the ruins of an ancient chapel, and the remains of the castle, the site has a distinctly wild and forsaken atmosphere – the obvious contrast being the charming lighthouse that was erected in 1902 on the site of the castle keep.
