A beautiful day in #Stirling so out for a walk up by #StirlingCastle and Kirk of the Holy Rude. The kirkyard is very atmospheric in this weather. #CowaneHospital includes a statue of its founder John Cowane. Known locally as "Auld Staneybreeks" he is reputed to come off his plinth on hogmanay and dance a jig. No sign of any dancing today though!! #Stirling #Scotland #scottishhistory #VisitScotland #genealogy
