Aelric (or Aelricus) was a Northumbrian mason, probably of Saxon origin, known for his work during the 12th century on the building of Dunfermline Abbey. [1]
A document produced between 1153 and 1156 granted the lands of Ledmacduuegil by Malcolm IV of Scotland to Dunfermline Abbey and records him as "master, mason". [2] That land became known as Maistertoun or Masterton, with reference to Aelric. [3] [1]
