The Hospital of St John the Baptist, at Arbroath, Scotland, was founded in the early 14th century by the monastic community at Arbroath Abbey. The exact date for the foundation is uncertain, but it is first recorded in 1325 during the time that Bernard of Kilwinning (1324–c.1328) was Abbot of Arbroath. The Abbey itself was founded in 1178 by King William the Lion for a group of Tironensian Benedictine monks from Kelso Abbey. It was consecrated in 1197. It is possible that the hospital was used by travellers, as a chantry or possibly almshouse. The only visible remains of the medieval hospital are a left hand door arch which has been incorporated into the 19th-century Hospitalfield House. In the nineteenth century a chance location of about 120 skeletons in shallow graves near Hospitalfield House suggests the site of a medieval burial ground. Hospitalfield House is now an arts centre, and inspired the fictional location "Monkbarns", the home of Jonathan Oldbuck, title character of Sir Walter Scott’s novel, The Antiquary.

Kerr's Miniature Railway was a 10+1⁄4 in (260 mm) gauge railway, a 1⁄2 mi (800 m) return ride, adjacent to the Dundee-Aberdeen line in West Links Park Arbroath. It was the oldest miniature railway in Scotland, having first opened for business in 1935. Under its original owner, Matthew Kerr (senior), it was a commercial business but since 1979, when it passed to his son, Matthew Kerr Jnr, it had been run as a non-profit concern. With the death of Matthew Kerr Jnr, owner of Kerr's Miniature Railway, on 17 April 2006 after a prolonged illness, the future of the railway had been uncertain; however, Kerr's widow and son continued to run the railway with the help of volunteers. The railway had six locomotives, two of which were steam and built by Herbert Bullock in the 1930s. The railway also operated three miniature vehicles (two buses and a fire engine), which gave rides to children along the Arbroath seafront. Fares as of 2020 were £2.50 for both adults and children, with trains running weekends from April to end of September and both Easter and Summer local school holidays from 11am to 4pm. In 2013, an extension to the entrance of West Links Park was planned.It was announced in August 2020 that, due to falling passenger numbers, the railway would close in early October 2020. The railway closed indefinitely on 11 October 2020.
