Скачать или смотреть Stirling's 900 Year Old Tradition - Walking the Marches 2025

The Walking of the Marches in Stirling is an important part of the city's cultural heritage. The tradition of inspecting and protecting the boundaries goes back as far as the 12th century and possibly earlier.

The Walking or Riding of Marches in Scotland is when officials would go round their Boundaries or Marches to inspect them and see that they are intact and have not been encroached upon. The main inspectors of the Marches in Stirling are known as Birlawmen led by "The Captain of the Birlawmen" and used their picks and shovels to turn over a sod of grass to mark certain points in the boundary which were later replaced by march stones.

This years parade procession was led by Alloa-Bowmar Pipe band and Stirling & District Schools Pipe Band.
