This was a town house built in 1570 for the keeper of the castle
Stirling Castle – once a residence of Scottish kings and queens – was rebuilt in the 16th century
The Great Hall has been returned to its original yellow colour, which would have covered other castle buildings too. It would have been a golden sight on the top of the hill.
