In 1950, on Christmas Day, four Scottish students retrieved the stone from
Westminster Abbey and took it back to Scotland A huge police search was
undertaken, but it was only when the stone was left at Arbroath Abbey four
months later that it was recovered. It was thought that the students had broken
the stone, but we now know that it was the suffragette's bomb that caused the
damage. 23we know the names of the four students, they were never arrested
or prosecuted. The leader of the group. Ian Hamilton, remained proud of his
nctions until his death in 2022.
Today a replica of the stone sits on the original site of Scone Abbey, which
tourists can visit and even sit on. The original is in Edinburgh Castle and can
also be seen by visitors. It briefly returned to London in 2023 for the coronation
of Charles III
