Looking for Man and Van Hire in Stirling?

Stirling, royal burgh (town), Stirling council area, historic county of Stirlingshire, south-central Scotland, on the right bank of the River Forth. The precipitous 250-foot- (75-metre-) high volcanic plug on which the present castle stands was probably occupied by the early British Picts. The settlement had developed sufficiently for it to be made a royal burgh about 1130. Alexander II of Scotland granted another charter in 1226 and made the castle a royal residence.

Two famous battles were fought near Stirling. In the Battle of Stirling Bridge (1297) Sir William Wallace, the Scottish national leader, routed the English, and in 1314 at the Battle of Bannockburn, 2.5 miles (4 km) south, the English under Edward II were defeated and the Scots regained their independence. From then until the mid-16th century Stirling flourished and shared with Edinburgh the rank and privileges of a capital city. The castle became a regular residence for the Stuart kings, but, after the union of the Scottish and English crowns in 1603, Stirling ceased to play an important national role.
