Abstract

Between 1560 and the early 19th Century, the Reformation meant that the Catholic religion was outlawed in Scotland. The training of priests continued in the Scots colleges in continental Europe. A secret seminary was established in the hills of Glenlivet to prepare boys for this further preparation abroad.
