Holyrood Abbey (Ruined In 1768) Was Used For The Scottish Coronation Of Charles I In 1633. Scottish Kings Were Traditionally Crowned At Scone Whilst Sitting On The "Stone Of Destiny". However This Was Captured By Edward I In 1296 And Taken To Westminster Where It Was Put Into The English Throne. After A Chequered History (See Wikipedia.Org/Wiki/Stone_Of_Scone )It Was Returned To Scotland In 1996 And Can Be Seen In Edinburgh Castle (Though Should Be Returned To Westminster For Any Future British Coronations!)
