Path junction, Broomridge Once a sandy, broom covered ridge above Broomridge  Farm, it was not built upon and remains a broomy rig to this day.

As a visitor, can I say the cleanliness of the area is a credit to those who live there.

River Forth at Stirling Wharfs used to line the nearer bank of the river in connection with an adjacent Army depot but the closure of the swing bridge at Kincardine ten miles downstream to shipping traffic and the building of the fixed span Clackmannanshire Bridge just above it have ensured that sea-going ships will never again be seen at Stirling.  In connection with the redevelopment of the waterside a new footpath is being constructed alongside the river.  Note that riverside flood banks not only keep the river out of the fields but can also prevent water draining down the fields finding its way out into the river!
