Bannockburn Monument
Stirling

The monument and statue of King Robert Bruce celebrating the victory of the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.

In the distance are Stirling Castle and on the right the Wallace Monument.

Showing both of the monuments and the exhibition centre, looking north.

There's a poem inscribed on the wooden fascia inside the monument, said to be on the high ground from where Bruce commanded the battle.

The statue alone.

The exhibition centre next to the generous car and bus parking space.

There's the inevitable gift shop and a rather nice café.

The statue close up. The dates are of his kingship rather than his lifespan.
