King Charles could be crowned on the wrong Stone of Destiny next year, according to the boss of a pub said to house the real one.
David Low, who owns The Arlington in Glasgow, spoke out after last week’s death of lawyer Ian Hamilton at the age of 97. He had led a gang of four Glasgow University students and nationalists who took the stone from Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day 1950.
It’s claimed the stone they dumped four months later at Arbroath Abbey is a replica while the real one was left at The Arlington, a pub in the city’s Woodlands Road where the group were regulars.David, 64, said: “We believe that we have the real one.
However, now Ian Hamilton is dead, no one can say for certain.
