What is recorded here

Stirling Castle Esplanade holds a 19th Century boundary stone, marking the edge of castle land before modern roads redrawn it. The stone does not boast; it waits beneath grass and boot traffic, still drawing an invisible line across Scotland. People may pass it without knowing they walk a border written in rock, not ink.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stirling Castle Esplanade as Boundary Stone (19th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Stirling Castle Esplanade is a 19th-century boundary stone associated with the development and fortification efforts around Stirling Castle, a historically significant site in Scottish military history. It is remembered as part of the broader landscape of Stirling, which has been a strategic location due to its control over the River Forth and the Lowland-Highland boundary.
