1 The earliest reliable record of Stirling dates only from the reign of Alexander I (1107–1124), when it occurs in a charter (Lawrie, Early Scottish Charters prior to A.D. 1153, No. CLXXXII). TOO much importance should not be attached to the occurrence of the place-name Struthlinn, under the years 995–7, in the Prophecy of St Berchan ( Anderson, , Early Sources of Scottish History, 1, p. 519).Google Scholar
