HOTELS IN FALKIRK, SCOTLAND |
|
Falkirk is a town in central
Scotland lying to the north west and north east of the cities of Edinburgh
and Glasgow, respectively.
The town lies at the junction of
the Forth and Clyde Canal and the Union Canal, a location which proved
pivotal to the growth of Falkirk as a centre of heavy industry during the
Industrial Revolution. In the 18th and 19th Centuries Falkirk was at the
centre of a large iron and steel industry, underpinned by the Carron Company
which developed close to the town. In the last 50 years or so heavy industry
has declined, and the economy of the town has become increasingly services
orientated. |
 |
Today Falkirk functions
as the principal retail and administrative centre for the wider Falkirk
Council area. Attractions in and around Falkirk include the Falkirk Wheel,
remnants of the Antonine wall and Callendar House. |

of the Kingdom of Scotland, Stirling was created a Royal burgh by King
David I in 1130, which it remained until 1975, when the county of Stirlingshire
was absorbed into Central Region. In 2002, as part of Queen Elizabeth II's
