Tour Scotland Video King's Knot Gardens Below Stirling Castle
Tour Scotland video of the The King's Knot gardens below Stirling Castle, Stirling, Scotland. The Castle of Stirling first emerges into the light of history in the time of Alexander I who, according to a document of the following reign, dedicated a chapel there. Alexander died at the Castle in 1124 and was succeeded by his brother David, who frequently stayed at Stirling. Below the castle are the grassy outlines of a much bigger formal garden. This is the King’s Knot, the knot itself being a raised eight sided feature dating from the 1600s.
