The window s, belonging to the decorated period, and not without merit, are blocked up, and but a partial light is admitted to the interior through the door.
HISTORICAL SKETCH.
The early history of this religious house is interesting, from its connexion with that of the orig. N of the royal house of Stuart. Walter, the son of Alan, a knight of Anglo-Norman descent, obtained from King David I. , in the twelfth century, a charter of the burgh and lands of Renfrew and the lands of Paisley. The cha...rter was confirmed by Malcolm IV. , who made the office of Steward of Scotland, which had been conferred on Walter, hereditary in the family. Besides many other acts of ecclesiastical munificence, Walter, soon after the middle of the twelfth century, founded the Abbey of Paisley. The foundation-charter is undated, but a minute criticism of the internal evidence conveyed by it, fortified by external evidence relating to the witnesses, has led the Editor of the Cartulary to the conclusion, that the date must have been " about the year 1163.
