Glenluce Abbey, situated 2 miles north of Glenluce village, Wigtownshire, was founded circa 1190 as a Cistercian Monastery. The Chapter House was rebuilt in the early 16^th Century. It was visited in 1329 by Robert I, and on several occasions by James IV on pilgrimages to Whithorn. The infamous Gilbert Kennedy, 4^th Earl of Cassillis, acquired the Abbey by persuading a monk to forge the signature of the Abbot, Thomas Hay, on a lease. He hired an assassin to murder the monk, then hanged the assassin for the monk’s murder. Hay’s son, also Thomas, having assumed the office of Commendator, began the demolition of the Abbey, using its stones to build the nearby Castle of Park. Michael Scott, the famous 13^th  Century wizard, is alleged to have imprisoned the spirit of a local plague epidemic in one of the Abbey’s vaults.
