Update: 2024-05-09
Description
In this episode, we journey through the historic town of Saint Andrews, once the ecclesiastical heart of Scotland, now better known as the home of golf. We delve into its transformation from a major pilgrimage site, housing the relics of Saint Andrew, to its decline following the Protestant Reformation and the sacking of its once-glorious cathedral. Join us as we explore how this town, despite its decaying grandeur, played a pivotal role in the origins of golf and the formation of Scotland's first private golf clubs.
