Stirling City
Maybe it’s something to do with the craggy beauty of its setting, and the open vistas which roll out beneath the two unmistakable landmarks of Castle and Wallace Monument, but Stirling has always set its sights far and wide. The outlook is all-embracing and international.
Stirling became Scotland’s youngest city
HM Queen Elizabeth II granted six UK towns city status in 2002 to mark her Golden Jubilee, and Stirling's bid was one of the successful ones. In May the Queen visited the new city to present the letters patent to the then Provost ,Tommy Brookes.
Our world-class university spread across one of the most beautiful campuses in Europe, the largest regeneration project in the country, a new national park on the doorstep, thriving inward investment, a growing population and a great quality of life are just some of the reasons for Stirling's success.
