There’s a brand new bairn amongst the buttresses of Scone Palace, as William Murray, Viscount Stormont, and his spouse Charlotte Murray, Viscountess Stormont, have welcomed their second son, the Hon Alexander Peter Balvaird Murray, on 27 May. This latest addition to the household will likely be a brother to one-year-old Hon Helier Edward David Mungo, styled the Master of Stormont, and a grandson for Viscount Stormont’s dad and mom, the Earl of Mansfield and Sophia Ashbrooke.
Viscount and Viscountess Stormont are set to inherit the household seat of Scone Palace in Perthshire, one of Britain’s most historic houses. Dating again to the twelfth Century, the Palace’s Abbey was as soon as the website of the Stone of Scone, the place the first Kings of Scotland have been topped. From Shakespeare’s Macbeth to Robert the Bruce and Charles II, some of historical past’s most storied monarchs acceded to the throne at Scone Palace, although maybe one of the website’s bloodiest moments was down to the first true King of Scotland, Kenneth MacAlpin.
