Construction went on for over a century. As the headquarters of the Scottish Medieval Catholic Church, the cathedral served as the seat of the Archdiocese of St Andrews and the Bishops and Archbishops of St Andrews. According to legend, St Regulus, also known as St Rule, is responsible for delivering St Andrew’s relics to this pocket of Scotland from Patras, Greece. Operations continued as normal until 1559 when the Scottish Reformation resulted in the abolition of Catholic Mass, which then led to the ransacking of the cathedral. Eventually, the place was subjected to abandonment in 1561, causing it to fall into a derelict state of decay. By the late 16th century, chunks of the leftover ruins were whisked away from the site following the collapse of the centre tower and the north wall. In 1826, the ruins finally received adequate attention. Today, St Andrews Cathedral is in the custody of Historic Scotland and open for endless exploration along with a museum. <p>For more information on the Cathedral, see <a href="https://maths.curious-sta.org/st-andrews-cathedral/">here</a>.</p> Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource mm510@st-andrews.ac.uk Subject The topic of the resource Philosophy Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived mathematicalycurious Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1157 Europeana Specific elements of the Europeana Semantic Elements.

It was built by Thomas Robertson at around 1859 but was completely refurbished in 1843 by the Provost and Mr. John Grant of Kilgraston. Its design is based on that of the Netherbow in Edinburgh. The West Port sits at the lower end of one of the towns’ three premier streets. The view from the west shows an impressive monumental quality while the view from the east forms a natural boundary to the town's historic core. It is still in use for passage, and thus preserves some of the aesthetic effect of an archway. The West Port remains a notable structure, contributing positively to the historic fabric of Scotland's oldest university town.

Title A name given to the resource Thomas Rodger's House &amp; Studio Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived mathematicalycurious,thomasrodger Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 288 Type The nature or genre of the resource Site Description An account of the resource Thomas Rodger (1832-1883) was the first professional photographer in St Andrews, famous for his portrayals of the town, its people, and visitors. He studied chemistry at Madras College and is thought to have been an exceptional student. Rodger gave up medicine for a career in photography having been persuaded by Dr John Adamson since Chemistry was closely linked to photography during that time. He started as a ‘calotypist’ but would later move on to the Collodion Process in photography. By 1855, Rodger had become widely successful having won several awards and was exceptionally proficient in several methods. He considered himself more of an artist than a clever scientist who believed that as much as the science of photography had accomplished, there was yet a wider field open. He was famous for his individual portraits and his pictorial record of the town, its people, the fisher folk and eminent visitors bought him great fame and Rodger made St Andrews the centre of world photography.
