Thanks

Thanks are due to;

The Dean’s Council and Guildry for supporting the installation of the seat and plaque at the site of the old Stirling Harbour., which is funded by a Charitable Trust.

Colin O’Brien, attending in a dual capacity as Ex-Provost (2006) and Chairman of Cowane’s Trust on whose land the seat is installed. Gerry McDermott, the previous Master & Factor who provided advice & encouragement.

Ian Crawford, who provided the James Proudfoot print which inspired the image we used for the plaque. Alan Donald, who patiently provided the computer image and text, with several editions & linked with The Sign Factory.

A & L King of Auchterarder, who kindly donated the Granite blocks and plinth and installed the seat & plaque. An anonymous donor of the marble seat.

Stirling Council staff such as Jay Dawson regarding planning permission, Andrew Muirhead, Operations Librarian, who allowed us to use the Proudfoot print whose copyright is held by the Council, & Donald Balsillie who advised on a path to be installed on this site.

Riverside Community Council & Councillor McKean who have been very enthusiastic of this project.

I especially want to welcome Mrs Kay Strang, Depute Head Teacher, and the Pupil Council from Riverside Primary School. They are the future and I hope that they can learn from the past and utilise this seat and plaque to stimulate an interest in the City of Stirling.
