Additional Information
History of the Canongate Name

The Canongate founder, William Roquemore, was inspired to name the club Canongate after visiting Scotland and hearing the following story about a place called Edinburgh. Edinburgh, capital city of Scotland, is the home of golf. There you will find the Royal Mile, dating back to 1128. The Royal Mile runs from Edinburgh Castle, a fortress built on a craggy volcanic hill, to Holyrood Palace, which is still occupied each summer by the British Royal Family. Like streets in many cities, the Royal Mile changes names three times - High Street, Lawnmarket, and The Canongate. In 1682 the Duke of York, who later became King James II of England, was in residence at Holyrood Palace. Legend has it that the Duke was challenged to a golf match by two confident noblemen. Offered the partner of his choice, he opted for John Paterson, an Edinburgh cobbler. Winning the match the Duke gave Paterson the entire purse wagered. The cobbler of modest means used the money to build a home on The Canongate. The thrifty Scots were duly impressed and in time The Canongate became known throughout Scotland as "Golfer's Land."
