Dunfermline, Royal Burgh in the Kingdom of Fife – Scotland’s capital till the 17th century. Anciently called the Auld Toon; a city of kings, it was the residence of Malcolm III (Canmore’s Tower), and the burial place of Robert the Bruce. Later industrialised, it greatly benefited from its famous son Andrew Carnegie’s benevolence. A lad from Fife, Ken Allan will describe this fascinating history and the Auld Toon’s restoration at the Victoria University of Wellington Law School, Old Government Buildings, Lambton Quay.
