The late medieval bridge (believed to be 15th or early 16th century in date) is a Scheduled Monument http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/SM90290. It has been used as a footbridge since the new Stirling Bridge Image was constructed in the 1830s. Some visitors are looking over towards where the wooden 13th century bridge used to be, which was the site of the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297.
