  === Hisory of Dunfermline https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Dunfermline ===
  The first historic record for Dunfermline was made in the 11th century.[11] According to the fourteenth-century chronicler, John of Fordun, Malcolm III married his second bride, the Anglo-Hungarian princess Saint Margaret, at the church in Dunfermline between 1068 and 1070;[12] the ceremony was performed by Fothad, the last Celtic bishop of St Andrews.[11][13] Malcolm III established Dunfermline as a new seat for royal power in the mid-11th century and initiated changes that eventually made the township the de facto capital of Scotland for much of the period until the assassination of James I in 1437.[14] Following her marriage to King Malcolm III, Queen Margaret encouraged her husband to convert the small culdee chapel into a church for Benedictine monks.[14] The existing culdee church was no longer able to meet the demand for its growing congregation because of a large increase in the population of Dunfermline from the arrival of English nobility coming into Scotland.[15] The founding of this new church of Dunfermline was inaugurated around 1072, but was not recorded in the town's records.[15]
  
  King David I of Scotland (reigned 1124–53) would later grant this church, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, to "unam mansuram in burgo meo de Dunfermlyn" which translates into "a house or dwelling place in my burgh of Dunfermline".[11][16] The foundations of the church evolved into an Abbey in 1128, under the reign of their son, David I.[14][17] Dunfermline Abbey would play a major role in the general romanisation of religion throughout the kingdom. At the peak of its power the abbey controlled four burghs, three courts of regality and a large portfolio of lands from Moray in the north down into Berwickshire.[14] From the time of Alexander I (reign 1104-28), the location of the church - later granted Abbey status - would also become firmly established as a prosperous royal mausoleum of the Scottish Crown.[18] A total of eighteen royals, including seven Kings, were buried here from Queen Margaret in 1093 to Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany in 1420.[19] During the fight for Scottish Independence from English rule, between 1296 and 1329, Robert The Bruce had insisted as early as 1314, he wanted to be buried in the royal mausoleum in Dunfermline. This was so he could maintain the legacy of previous Scottish Kings interred here, referring to them as our ‘predecessors’.[20] Robert The Bruce (reigned 1306–29) would ultimately become the last of the seven Scottish Kings to be given this honour in 1329, although his heart was taken to Melrose Abbey.[20]
  
  Dunfermline had become a burgh between 1124 and 1127, if not before this time.[11][16] Dunfermline Palace was also connected to the abbey and the first known documentation of the Auld Alliance was signed there on 23 October 1295.
  
  The Union of the Crowns ended the town's royal connections when James VI relocated the Scottish Court to London in 1603.[21] The Reformation of 1560 had previously meant a loss of the Dunfermline's ecclesiastical importance. On 25 May 1624, a fire engulfed around three-quarters of the medieval-renaissance burgh.[21][22] Some of the surviving buildings of the fire were the palace, the abbey and the Abbot's House.[14][23]
  
  The decline in the fortunes of Dunfermline lasted until the introduction of a linen industry in the early 18th century.[24] One reason for which the town became a centre for linen was there was enough water to power the mills and nearby ports along the Fife Coast. These ports also did trade with the Baltic and Low Countries.[24] Another reason was through an act of industrial espionage in 1709 by a weaver known as James Blake who gained access to the workshops of a damask linen factory in Edinburgh by pretending to act like a simpleton in order to find out and memorise the formula.[24][25] On his return to his home town in 1718, Blake established a damask linen industry in the town.[24] The largest of these factories was St Leonard's Mill which was established by Erskine Beveridge in 1851.
