Stirling & Trossachs
Stirling is one of Scotland’s oldest towns. Its original inhabitants, in pre-historic times, lived at the foot of what is now the castle rock, living off oysters and sea food. Later, the Romans occupied the strategic castle hill. Today, Stirling is a small town of 35,000 people; a tourist town, certainly, but a working town too as it is a major administrative centre, retail site and home to one of Scotland’s universities.
