Bannockburn Mural

I had the opportunity to join a guided tour of the Battle of Bannockurn visitor centre on Saturday morning - and a very good tour it was too.

One of the recent additions to the visitor centre is a 30-metre mural depicting the battle.

According to the BBC website: "The mural, by artist Christ Rutterford, was crowd-funded, with people making donations to have their faces included as soldiers in the conflict. Famous faces appearing alongside Robert the Bruce include Lorraine Kelly and former Scotland rugby star Al Kellock. One of the warriors is even pictured holding his pet cat in one hand and a battle axe in the other."
