I am not trying to be a smart a@@~ here, but William Wallace wearing a crown? I rather think that is Robert the Bruce looking towards the distant Wallace monument.

Well spotted Jock, yes that's King Robert the Bruce.
That what comes of sitting up too late uploading pics after a full day's excursion.

Did you get to see "The Sword" at the Wallace monument?

There is a replica of William Wallace's sword currently on display in the Wallace Mounument.

Where is the statue of the Bruce on his horse? Is it still on the castle esplanade or have they moved it?
