Stirling Castle: Queen Anne Casemates

No Class (event) (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

No visible trace remains in Stirling, Scotland, though the name Queen Anne Casemates still belongs to the castle. The absence does not diminish the place; it redirects attention to the living city and the repeated human stories that built the castle. What is missing from modern sight may still exist beneath pavement, inside memory or within the continuous change of the locality.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stirling Castle: Queen Anne Casemates as No Class (event) (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Stirling Castle, including the Queen Anne Casemates, was originally built by the Kings of Scotland, with significant additions made in the 16th and 17th centuries, and it has been held by several Scottish monarchs, including Queen Anne in the early 18th century. It is important as a key royal and military site in Scottish history, strategically located to control the central belt of Scotland.
