A wet afternoon in Stirling
Time for some extreme shopping. Beats getting hammered in the OMM down in the Lakes, which was suffering carpark flooding and later media hysteria on this afternoon. Those Highland green squares? They had to wait.

Black Boy Fountain
The fountain was originally erected to commemorate those from Stirling who died in the Black Plague. In the 17th century, the Allan Park area was outside the city walls and was a place of public execution and burial known as the "Gallous Mailing". The fountain was manufactured by the Neilson Foundry of Glasgow. Restoration work was carried out 1997 and again in 2016. https://my.stirling.gov.uk/news/view/30634

The 'Black Boy' Water Fountain
From an information board nearby:
"Local residents purchased the cast iron Black Boy Fountain, which could jet water 20ft into the air, in 1850. They were keen to increase their property prices by improving an area which had once been the site of the town gallows".
The building behind is the former Allan Park Cinema which first opened in 1938.
