COLDINGHAM
PRIORY
1518AD
The ruthless way of James III in dealing with Coldingham Priory and the Homes was typical. He made many enemies who confronted James at Sauchieburn (near Bannockburn). James was defeated but escaped. He was discovered hiding and was killed.
After the defeat and murder of James III in 1488AD, Coldingham Priory was re-instated but only as a shadow of its former self.
Times became even more lawless.
