Stirling Castle sites high on a volcanic rock with magnificent views. Stirling Attractions Scotland Visit Stirling Attractions Stirling Scotland Attraction Stirling Scotland Stirling was and important area with a castle looking over many miles and with a great view of the river forth, which was once the border of Scotland and Northumbria England. The old stirling bridge was important as it was the easiest place to cross the river.

The bridge is a modern structure with four arches. On Wallace’s instructions a carpenter John Wright removes pins causing the bridge to collapse, thereby ensuring victory. Thereafter all first born sons of the Wright family are nick named “Pin” until the last of them dies in 1900. The victory was almost unthinkable, England had the greatest fighting machine in the known world and could not have foreseen that a “peasant army of spearmen” would be any threat to them. Old City Wall Stirling Stirling was the Royal Court of the Stuart’s and was a target for the English Kings. In 1547 a wall was built around the town to protect it from English invaders after the disastrous battle at Musselburgh (The Battle of Pinkie Cleuch).

Hardie and Baird Plaque Murdered in Stirling In 1813 in protest at their reduced standard of living 40,000 weavers went on strike for over two months. A dispute that only ended when the government arrested the leaders of their union and forced the men back to work. Andrew Hardie and John Baird were tried for their beliefs. At their trial the judge said "you Andrew Hardie and John Beard can hold out little or no hope of mercy as you are the leaders". He then made an example of them and sentenced them to death. They were betrayed for their views and beliefs and by the establishment that they had sought to reform. The rest of the rebels were sentenced to be transported overseas to penal colonies in New South Wales and Tasmania Baird and Hardie were executed on 8th September 1813 in front of a crowd of 2000 people. They were left hanging for over 30 minutes and then decapitated.
