Scottish Owl Centre

This has been a religious site at least since the Bronze Age. In medieval times it was a base for the Knights Hospitaller of St John of Jerusalem, providing shelter and treatment for pilgrims. In 1298 Edward I of England was injured by his own horse before the Battle of Falkirk and was treated here. "Tóir Féichín" means a sanctuary boundary stone, once past it you were under church jurisdiction and secular bailiffs couldn't touch you. What you see now is mostly from 1400: the Preceptory was dissolved at the Reformation but the church continued in use.

A 4000-year-old ritual complex with Bronze Age and early Christian tombs. The burial chamber has been roofed over by a modern concrete dome but you can shimmy in.

Amusement park mostly for pre-teens, with museum, farm, rides slides and animals. The light railway is 762 mm gauge, hauled by a rinky-dinky industrial diesel, and runs weekends April-Sept plus daily in summer school holidays, £2 extra. Assistance dogs only.
