As the World Cup approaches, I decided today to make a sort of pilgrimage visit to the world’s oldest football. Found above Mary Queen of Scots bedroom in Stirling castle, the ball is thought to date to the 1540s.
In fact, the young queen Mary may even have kicked it herself!
The World's Tallest and Longest hedge is the Meikleour beech hedge in Perthshire. It is one third of a mile long and 98ft high. It was planted in 1745 and local legend says the hedge grows towards the heavens, because the men who planted it were killed at the Battle of Culloden.
How many Scots know who Malcolm Canmore was, or Kenneth McAlpine, or Aedan mac Gabrain, or Fergus Mor mac Eirc, or who MacBeth or his wife Gruoch nighean Boite were? A period of our history not really known in our culture.
