Stirling,Stirling News

The National Trust for Scotland is calling for the Scottish Government to stop plans for a trotting track on Bannockburn Battlefield.

Scottish Ministers have already said they will step in if Stirling councillors back a bid to create the harness racing track on Bannockburn Battlefield at Whins of Milton.

A notification had been received from the Scottish Government just the day before the meeting saying if panel members were “minded to approve” the application, ministers would intervene and the council would have to pause the granting of the permission for at least 28 days to allow the ministers to further assess the impact on the historic battlefield and listed buildings “of national significance”.
