STIRLING | 4K Narrated Walking Tour | Let's Walk 2021

Join me for a walk around the centre of Scotland's smallest city, but one of its most significant: Stirling! Briefly a former national capital, the city is famed for its storied castle, which pins Scotland together as the city lies in between the busy Central Belt and the legendary Highlands.

On our walk around Stirling, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Stirling Castle, Princess Louise's Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Memorial, a statue of Robert the Bruce, Old Town Cemetery, Ladies' Rock, Star Pyramid (or Salem Rock), the old Grammar School, Argyll's Lodging, Mar's Wark, the Church of the Holy Rude, the Boys' Club, Bruce of Auchenbowie's House, Stirling Tolbooth, Stirling Mercat Cross, the Old Town Jail, Erskine Marykirk, the tomb of Ebeneezer Erskine, the old High School, 55 Baker Street, the Athenaeum, Stirling Arcade, Stirling Municipal Buildings, Stirling Central Library, Stirling Town Walls, Stirling War Memorial, a statue of Rob Roy MacGregor, and a statue of Robert Burns.
