| Chapel Well (Cambusbarron) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Stirling | Visited | 30th Oct 2018 | -1 | 2 | 4 | Bruce's Well, Cambusbarron: Even with the GPS from the Portal, we had great trouble finding this well, and in the end had to ask two locals. One pointed us to an old water fountain in a nearby park, now repurposed as a planter; the other took us to a footpath by the side of a small stream and point... Read More |

| Coneypark Nursery (Cambusbarron) | Cairn | Scotland | Stirling | Visited | 31st Oct 2018 | 2 | 3 | 5 | Coneypark Nursery Cairn: This cairn is right in the middle of a modern housing estate, where it has been left as a corner ‘open space’. The sides of the cairn have been marginally cut away to create the road and the gardens for the houses, but it is possible to walk over the cairn. A few of th... Read More |

Going back to the car, we drove further down Douglas Terrace, past the grave yard, to where the road (St Thomas’s Well) turns right. The well is just past it’s junction with the Old Turnpike Road.
This we... Read More |

| St Ninian's Well (Stirling) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Stirling | Visited | 30th Oct 2018 | 3 | 2 | 5 | St Ninian's Well, Stirling: This was just over the road from the Wellgreen Carpark, but we had difficulty in finding this well, because of its rather hidden location.

There is a footpath signposted to Butt Well leading through the field next to the layby, just down the grassy slope.
Walking up towards the Castle, we were met by a fair number of dog walkers walking to... Read More |

| Randolphfield Stones | Standing Stones | Scotland | Stirling | Visited | 30th Oct 2018 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Randolphfield Stones, Sterling: This visit felt really strange, as the stones were literally in front of the police station, and I wondered if I’d get a tap on the shoulder and the memory card from my camera confiscated! No one seemed to turn a hair, though I took a number of photographs of both ... Read More |
