Arbirlot history
Prehistoric and Early Christian
There is extensive evidence of prehistoric occupation of the Arbirlot area. There are cropmark indications of a possible Roman marching camp to the west of Grahamston Cottages. Monastic records give some support to the tradition of a Culdee religious house or “college” in the parish.
Medieval
The church of Arbirlot belonged to the diocese of St Andrews and the bishops held lands lying to the east of the Elliot Water. Bishop Roger de Beaumont granted the church to the new Abbey around the time of its foundation. The parish suffered from the effects of the First War of Scottish Independence in the late 13th and early 14th centuries.
Post-Reformation
By the 17c, the barony of Kellie (or Kelly), which included the castle and much of the parish, was in the hands of the Irvines of Drum. In the 18th and 19th centuries Arbirlot was principally occupied by handloom weavers and farmers. In 1830 Thomas Guthrie, later to become a well known theologian, social reformer and founder of the Ragged School movement was appointed to the charge of Arbirirot by the heritor the Hon William Maule.
