@1981Marcus The words to Stirling Brig were written by Jim McLean a Scottish songwriter who is still alive to the tune of Cam Ye Ower Frae France which is an old Jacobite folk song

The Battle of Stirling Bridge was a battle of the First War of Scottish Independence. On 11 September 1297, the forces of Andrew Moray and William Wallace defeated the combined English forces of John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey and Hugh de Cressingham near Stirling, on the River Forth. ALBA GU BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
