This small library consists of several charters issued by William, King of Scots, affirming land grants and tithes to the Church of the Holy Trinity of Scone. The charters detail the donation of land, including tofts and meadows, as well as the right to receive tithes from fisheries and grain in specific areas. Each charter emphasizes the perpetual and free nature of these grants, with notable witnesses present at their issuance. The documents reflect the king's support for the church and its clergy, ensuring their rights and possessions are protected.
