Visit of James IV
John J. Reid (Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries, 1885) states that "in 1497 King James IV visited the Bass" and gives references. Phillimore also mentions that in 1497 King James IV visited the Bass, and that the boatmen who conveyed him from Dunbar were paid 14 shillings. Charters indicate Robert was knighted after January 1497 but before July 1498, so probably on the occasion of the King's visit to The Bass.
