More about this scene
Bruce's heart was carried on a crusade against the Moors of Granada by Sir James Douglas. Cut off from all support, Sir James threw Bruce's heart into the ranks of the enemy and he and his followers charged in after it. It is said that Bruce's heart was eventually returned to Scotland; it may be the mummified one interred at Melrose Abbey.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
In the long summer holiday my friend and I would pack up our picnics and bike all the way to Stirling from Sauchie, then we would climb up the many, many steps to the top of the tower and enjoy the wonderful view over Stirling and all around the area. It was wonderful. There was such a wonderful feeling of freedom standing up there. I must visit it again when I come home for a visit from Norfolk.
