    Stirling Castle Pictures #3

    Gargoyle on the wall of the old Stewart palace. Thought to be a caricature of Mary of Guise, mother of Mary Queen of Scots.



    The castle well.



    Children listening to one of the castle guides.



    An attempt at an artistic view of the Wallace Monument!



    The famous Stirling Bridge across the Forth.



    Looking back at the castle as we left.

    Thank you for sharing those!!!

    Wonderful pictures Trefor, thanks for posting these. I love the shot of Stirling bridge, as you never see it in the movies.
