| After being a symbol of Scottish monarchy for centuries, it was seized by English forces led by King Edward I in 1296 and taken to Westminster Abbey, where it was built into his throne to show that Edward, known as the ‘Hammer of the Scots’, had conquered Scotland.There it remained for hundreds of years until it was ‘reclaimed’ by Scottish Nationalists in 1950.On Christmas Day, four Scottish students led a daring raid into Westminster Abbey and brought the stone back to Scotland |
