Scotland. Supposed to have been founded by Angus, King of the Picts (735-747). Administered by the Culdees, later by canons regular from Scone. Its dependencies were: Lochleven, Monymusk, Isle of May, Pittenweem, Portmoak, and Kilrimont. The University of Saint Andrews owes its existence to the canons of Saint Andrews.
