Statement on Christie Clock

The Trustees and staff of Stirling City Heritage Trust were utterly shocked and dismayed to see the events of Friday 1 September 2023 when the historic Christie Clock was demolished. This was a structure listed by Historic Environment Scotland.

The Trust was involved in repair works to the Clock in 2006 when it offered a small grant for works to the masonry.

The Trustees have written to Stirling Council offering any support and advice as the Council proceeds with reinstatement of the structure. It is the full expectation of both staff and Trustees that there will be a full and faithful reinstatement of the clock, and we look forward to working with Stirling Council staff in the months ahead to achieve this.
