From the Wikipedia article
The Abbey of St Mary of Cambuskenneth, commonly known as Cambuskenneth Abbey, was a provostry of Canons Regular located on an area of land enclosed by a meander of the River Forth near Stirling in Scotland. The abbey today is largely reduced to its foundations, however its bell tower remains. The neighbouring modern village of Cambuskenneth is named after it.
