Stirling Castle, Stirlingshire, 19th century. Artist:s Leith
Stirling Castle, Stirlingshire, 19th century. Situated on top of a volcanic outcrop known as Castle Rock, Stirling Castle is one of the largest castles in Scotland. Its strategic location meant that control of Stirling was militarily important and as a result the castle endured several sieges. In 1304 Edward I of England laid siege to Stirling using the largest trebuchet ever built, the Warwolf, designed by his military engineer Master James of St George. The garrison, which numbered just 30, held out for four months before eventually surrendering. Most of the buildings seen today date from the 15th and 16th centuries

Dating back to the 19th century, this print showcases the grandeur and historical significance of one of Scotland's largest castles. Stirling Castle holds a strategic position that made it militarily important throughout history. The castle endured numerous sieges, with one notable event being Edward I of England's siege in 1304.

Most of the buildings seen today within Stirling Castle date from the 15th and 16th centuries. This architectural marvel stands as a testament to Scottish heritage and its defensive capabilities. The surrounding landscape adds to its allure, with River Forth flowing nearby.
