The venue rapidly became a national centre for events and in 1967 the Scottish Paraplegic Games were held there.The stadium was designed by the architects Wilson & Wilson, and constructed by Chisholm & Co.

For the first time athletes could train in all weathers. In 2004 it was extended, doubling its size to over 2100 square metres to create one of the best sports facilities in Scotland - home for the National Indoor Athletics Academy.The 2014 Commonwealth Games athletics track at Hampden Park was lifted and moved to Grangemouth Stadium as part of the Games legacy programme.

It was constructed to house the town’s bell and clock, as well as containing temporary lockups. The design was a reflection of civic pride. The original Steeple on the site was erected in 1697 and was the first building to be owned by the Stentmasters – the precursor of the town council. An exhibition on the history of the Steeple has just been installed by the Falkirk Local History Society, which is the host for this occasion.During this weekend there will be an opportunity to inspect the two prison cells (lockups).

The dominant building is the Masonic Temple with its classical Corinthian style under a balustrade. It is the only Masonic Temple in the district and was completed in 1906 for Lodge Callendar No.588, the second lodge of freemasons to be established in the town.

The two Wardens are flanked on their other side by windows representing the Senior and Junior Deacons.All in all this is an exceptional masonic lodge building.

It was completed in 1879 according to designs by the Falkirk architect Alexander Black. The oriel bay resting on a squat flowering column looks like a pulpit – just right for the Provost of Falkirk. Perhaps the ironwork crown on the truncated pyramid roof is also symbolic. That this was the administrative building for the burgh of Falkirk is shown by the large coat-of-arms set high in the gable. A description of Falkirk published in 1879 aptly stated that “pains have been taken to produce a bold and effective exterior without any lavish expenditure.” The total cost was a little over £3,000. As well as housing the Town Clerk’s office it contained the Fiscal’s office, the Collector’s rooms, the court room, witnesses’ room, committee room and council chamber. On the upper floor was a flat for the caretaker. Today the building is home to the Registrar, where births, marriages and deaths are recorded.

A panelled oak dado extends round the whole interior. The nave has an open scissor truss roof; whilst the ceiling of the chancel is painted pale blue with stencilled stars. The chancel arch springs from attached pillars that stand on carved corbels with naturalistic foliage. Within the arch is set a wrought iron screen, made in 1897 by the Carron Company. It was heavily pruned in the 1960s and the cross that surmounted it was suspended from the arch. In the Lady Chapel there is a wooden altar dedicated to those of the congregation who fell in the First World War, with front panels painted with scenes from the life of Christ. Hinged side panels have been added with the names of those who died in the Second World War. This was the first war memorial to be erected in Falkirk.

The school was planned on the open-air principle around an inside garden and described as Continental in design at the time. Five years later, under the ‘Schools Beautiful’ scheme Robert Heriot Westwater (1905-62) painted the large, nine-panel mural of Alice in Wonderland in its hall. The ‘transcendent’ Wonderland mural was to act in several ways – to enliven the school environment, as a pedagogic tool and as part of a modern, twentieth century campaign to revive mural art for public service. It still leaves an impression. It is a testament to the vision and ideals of early twentieth century social reformers.

Designed by Page\Park Architects and opened in 2011, the building�s design was inspired by the curved shape of a Chinese celestial phoenix that was presented to the original War Blinded centre on a plaque by the Sanlingerers Hong Kong golf club in 1951. The centre features a light and spacious floorplan with colour-coded d�cor that makes it easier for blind and visually impaired members to navigate without assistance. The building has received awards from the Royal Institute of British Architects, the Glasgow Institute of Architects, and Disability West Lothian and was most recently named as the �Scottish Building Project of the Year� by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.� Museum Represents a museum WC Yes EventsForChildren No Place The town or city Edinburgh HearingLoop No IsIncludedThisYear Yes DisabledAccess No Activities <div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW52436264">We will provide several building tours throughout the day that will highlight the history and heritage of our building and showcase the theatre’s connections with a host of global entertainers, including Anna Pavlova, Dame Margot Fontaine, Maria Callas, Juliette Binoche and Dame Maggie Smith. 10:30; 12:30; 14:30.We will offer two intergenerational dance workshops where young people can join in with their grown ups to learn dances from across the globe – the vibrant Brazilian Samba, the timeless English Waltz through to jumpin’ jive from America and the dance of the spanish matador, the Paso Doble. 11:30, 13:30.We will also run two workshops exploring the global origins of pantomime.

Andrew Carnegie laid the foundation stone and the Theatre was opened in 1906 with a performance of Cinderella. The King's Theatre became the headquarters of Howard & Wyndham before being sold to Edinburgh Council in 1966. The local authority managed the King's Theatre up until July 1998 when the operation merged with the Festival Theatre. Festival City Theatres Trust now manages both Theatres. The theatre has beautiful examples of Edwardian stained glass and its domed ceiling is the largest piece of public art work designed and painted by John Byrne.ACTIVITIES AND GLOBAL CONNECTIONSWe will provide several building tours throughout the day that will highlight the history and heritage of our building and showcase the theatre’s connections with a host of global entertainers, including Anna Pavlova, Dame Margot Fontaine, Maria Callas, Juliette Binoche and Dame Maggie Smith. 10:30; 12:30; 14:30.We will offer two intergenerational dance workshops where young people can join in with their grown ups to learn dances from across the globe – the vibrant Brazilian Samba, the timeless English Waltz through to jumpin’ jive from America and the dance of the spanish matador, the Paso Doble. 11:30, 13:30.We will also run two workshops exploring the global origins of pantomime.

By the 1470s the area was known as ‘Westirmart’, and seems to have been associated with the sale of timber, hats, and shoes. At the far end of the Grassmarket stood the gateway known as the West Port, which was in existence by at least 1509, and formed the western boundary of the burgh.

The project exploits the south-eastern orientation and offered a welcome opportunity to resolve some awkward geometry through the creation of a new hard landscaped terrace (edged by a line of free-standing oak pillars). The palette of materials acts as a deliberate contrast to the traditional stonework of the main house and includes hand-split oak shakes, sedum roof blanket, copper cladding panel and extensive areas of glazing. The ceiling comprises a zig-zag timber structure supporting a sedum roof comprising a variegated mix of heathers and mosses.
