Tour Scotland travel video of an early Summer walk in the gardens and grounds on visit to Scone Palace by Perth, Perthshire, including the Laburnum Walkway, with its distinctive bright yellow flowers and the bright colours from the Rhododendrons and Azaleas. The village of Scone once stood within the grounds of the Palace. However, when the medieval house was rebuilt as a Gothic Palace in 1803 and the landscaping of the new Palace grounds took place in 1805 the entire village was relocated two miles away and became known as New Scone. From the time of Kenneth MacAlpin, who created the Kingdom of Scone in the 9th century, all the Kings of Scots were crowned on the grounds of Scone Palace.
