Buildings below Stirling Castle


Stirling Castle is situated - like Edinburgh Castle - on a volcanic outcrop in the centre of the city.

The oldest Castle buildings date from around 1370. Stirling featured in ‘Braveheart’, starring Mel Gibson. Controversy about restoration works to the Castle emerged around 2000 with recreation of historical styles irritating some contemporary architects. The timber roof is well worth a visit in itself. The images of the great hall are from Cowco - Scottish timber craftsmen based in Angus.
