Abbot House, Dunfermline

[2] In March 2016 it was announced that the Carnegie Dunfermline Trust had taken over ownership of Abbot House, and that they intend to re-open the building to the public.

[3] In November 2016 it was announced that Fire Station Creative had been earmarked as the preferred operator, although plans had yet to be finalised and no indication of a possible re-opening date was given.

Highlights include a frescoed wall painting, dated to 1571, which may depict scenes from a middle-Scots translation of Virgil,[8][page needed] in the principal room of the first floor of the house, as well as a 14th-century tracery window.

Excavations within the garden in the 1990s revealed various finds, including a very large dog, likely a deer or wolfhound, that measured approximately 86 cm at the shoulder.

Other finds included a selection of medieval glazed and unglazed pottery sherds, costume fittings and personal accessories, and ironwork.
