Robert de Keldeleth (or Robert Kenleith) (died 1273) was a 13th-century Benedictine and then Cistercian abbot. He started his senior career as Abbot of Dunfermline (1240–52), becoming Chancellor of Scotland later in the 1240s. He took a prominent role as a supporter of Alan Durward during the minority of Alexander III of Scotland, and appears to have lost the Chancellorship as result. Following his resignation of the abbacy of Dunfermline, he became a Cistercian monk at Newbattle Abbey while continuing a comparatively less active role on the wider stage. In 1269 he became Abbot of Melrose (1269–1273), Newbattle's mother house, and held this position for the last four years of his life. ==Dunfermline== His name suggests he came from or was associated with Kinleith, in Currie parish, Midlothian.〔Tait & Reid "Kenleith , Robert (d. 1273)".〕 Robert began his career as a Benedictine monk at Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, Scotland. After the death of Abbot Geoffrey III on 5 October 1240, he was chosen as the new Abbot of Dunfermline.〔Watt & Shead, ''Heads of Religious Houses'', 68.〕 He became one of Dunfermline's most successful abbots and enjoyed a close relationship with King Alexander II of Scotland. After a request was made by the king, on 3 May 1245, Pope Innocent IV wrote to Abbot Robert granting permission for the latter to use a mitre and a ring, a privilege which increased the abbey's status.〔Anderson, ''Early Sources'', 518.〕 Robert further elevated the abbey's status by successfully spearheading a campaign to canonise Saint Margaret of Scotland, a figure who had been claimed to be Dunfermline's founder and whose shrine lay in the town; the translation of her remains took place in June 1250.〔Laing, ''Andrew of Wyntoun'', 2.250–51; Barrow, "Margaret (Margaret ) (d. 1093)".〕 Such successes were undoubtedly helped by Robert's good relationship with the Pope.〔 Robert was officially a Papal chaplain,〔Anderson, ''Early Sources'', 563, n. 3.〕 and, for instance, the Pope had charged Robert to assist in a dispute with the Bishop of St Andrews regarding a benefice that he wished to bestow on a Florentine follower.〔
