What is recorded here

Scone Palace in Perth and Kinross is a medieval Harness Pendant, though that label barely scratches the grandeur of its stones. The name itself hints at royal ceremony and hidden purpose, as if the building still wears the duties of older kings. It stands apart from ordinary houses, carrying the weight of Scotland's memory in every chamber and shadow.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Scone Palace as Harness Pendant (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Scone Palace, originally a royal residence and site of significant historical events, was held by the Scottish monarchy from the 12th century onwards. It is important as the traditional coronation site of Scottish kings and for its association with the Stone of Destiny.
