Glenluce Abbey
Glenluce Abbey,〔Also ''Abbey of Luce'', Latin: ''Comune Monasterii Beate Maeri de Valle Lucis'' ()〕 near to Glenluce, Scotland, was a Cistercian monastery called also ''Abbey of Luce'' or ''Vallis Lucis'' 〔(Richard Pococke, Daniel William Kemp, ''Tours in Scotland: 1747, 1750, 1760'', Vol. 1, Scottish History Society, Heritage Books, 2003, p. 12. )〕 and founded around 1190 by Rolland or Lochlann, Lord of Galloway and Constable of Scotland. Following the Scottish Reformation in 1560, the abbey fell into disuse.

Gilbert, Earl of Cassillis obtained control of Glenluce during the reign of Mary, Queen of Scots. The Earl persuaded one of the monks of the abbey to counterfeit the necessary signatures to a deed conveying the lands of the abbey to him and his heirs. To ensure that the forgery was not discovered he employed a man to murder the monk and then persuaded his uncle, the laird of Bargany to hang his paid assassin on a trumped up charge of theft. The success of these actions encouraged him to obtain the lands of Crossraguel Abbey through the torturing of Allan Stewart, the commendator at his castle of Dunure.〔MacGibbon, T. and Ross, D.
