Thistle’s Hidden Street Tour with Dr Murray Cook - 12th and 19th June 2024
Published on May 20, 2024
One of the most unique experiences that will be on offer this Summer is the opportunity for the first time in over 40 years for a select few to have a guided tour of Dirt Raw, the mediaeval street which is hidden below the Stirling Thistles shopping centre.
To celebrate Stirling's 900th anniversary and Start Up Stirling's 30th year, The Thistles have agreed to a unique experience, a guided tour led by Dr Murray Cook of Stirling's hidden medieval Dirt Raw, sealed under the Thistles over 40 years ago and featuring access to the hidden section of the Thieves' Pot, an element of Stirling's City Wall, the best preserved in Scotland and built during the Rough Wooing to deter the English from forcing the infant Mary Queen of Scots marrying Henry VIIIth's heir.
All proceeds from this event go to Start Up Stirling.
