About Stirling

Stirling is a city in central Scotland. The market town, encompassed by rich farmland, grew up interfacing the regal fortification, the medieval old town with its shippers and tradesmen, the connect and the port. Situated on the River Forth, Stirling is the regulatory place for the Stirling chamber region, and is customarily the province town of Stirlingshire. Undoubtedly it is the deliberately vital "Entryway to the Highlands".

It has been said that "Stirling, similar to a tremendous ornament catches Highlands and Lowlands together". Similarly "he who holds Stirling, holds Scotland" is regularly cited. Stirling's key position as the least connecting purpose of the River Forth before it widens towards the Firth of Forth, made it a central pointfor travel north or south.

When Stirling was briefly under Anglo-Saxon influence, as indicated by a ninth century legend, it was assaulted by Danish trespassers. The sound of a wolf stirred a sentry, be that as it may, who cautioned his battalion, which constrained a Viking retreat. This prompted the wolf being received as an image of the town as is appeared on the 1511 Stirling Jug. The region is today known as Wolfcraig. Even today the wolf shows up with a goshawk on the chamber's escutcheon alongside the as of late picked witticism: "Ardent as the Rock".
