In 1229 Queen Ermangarde, the widow of William the Lion and mother of Alexander II, invited the Cistercians at Melrose Abbey to set up a daughter house at Balmerino. They chose this location on the north Fife coast because of its climate and for its religious connections. The Abbey suffered during the reformation and sadly not much of it stands today.
