A challenging seven-month project to remove, restore and reinstall the historic 132-year-old William Wallace statue on the National Monument in Stirling has now been completed.
After the bronze 14ft figure of the Scottish hero was carefully taken down from the world-famous landmark for the first time, it headed to England in February for 10 weeks of painstaking repairs by specialists before returning home to Stirling where experts fixed it back in position.
Stirling Council invested an estimated £260,000 in the essential repairs which have brought the iconic statue back into peak condition for the Monument’s 150th anniversary celebrations in September.
