The volunteers have brought a wide range of skills to the project; some had no vegetable gardening experience at all, while others have lots of experience as amateurs or professional gardeners. Many of them are unemployed and volunteering helps them in a number of ways, boosting confidence, getting them out of the house and keeping them physically active.

Founded in the early 18th century by the brothers John and James Stein, by the 1730s it was the largest distillery in Scotland. The buildings which survive today were probably built in the 1770s. In 1786 a Boulton and Watt steam engine was installed to operate a mill in the distillery. There were also maltings, grain-drying kilns, grain stores, workshops, storage areas for empty casks and large secure warehouses. A wagon way and mile-long canal linked it with Kilbagie Distillery, established by James Stein in the 1770s, and the nearby pow (harbour), from where the whisky was shipped. By 1788, the two distilleries were so successful that they paid more export tax than the total land tax for Scotland. Legislation passed in the 1780s was designed, however, to curb the massive export of whisky to England; duties increased and Scottish distillers had to give a year’s notice of their intent to export, during which time production had to stop. Kennetpans was bankrupted and the distillery closed. It reopened in 1791 after it was bought by two businessmen and leased back to John Stein Jnr. Production resumed in 1795, but it closed for ever after his death in 1825. Kennetpans was never modernised for grain whisky production and it is, therefore, the most complete survivor of its type. The distillery buildings were unroofed by the early 1900s and all machinery and internal fittings removed or collapsed. There are traces of the designed landscape around Kennetpans House which, along with the Courts of Offices, was demolished in the mid 20th century. The distillery complex was one of the projects in the Inner Forth Landscape Initiative programme, partly funded by Historic Environment Scotland; test pits inside the three-storey distillery revealed original floor surfaces and it has been mostly cleared of vegetation, exposing the extent of the structural decay. A detailed 3D laser scan survey, full digital photographic record and historic building analysis of the entire building were also carried out in advance of conservation work. The present owners of the site are keen to celebrate and raise awareness of its national importance and have established a trust to try to raise funds to save it for future generations.

The interior remains equally intact, with bare stone walls and open wooden roofs over the nave and aisle; the apse has a plastered ceiling. The furnishings - plain pews and round stone font - are entirely contemporary with the building, as are the three stained glass windows, which were designed by Stephen Adam & Son of Glasgow. The fine west window was restored a few years ago. On an aisle column, window jamb and door lintel are carved phrases and beatitudes. A wrought iron stand near the south door holds a bell, dated 1838, which used to hang in the bellcote of the Old Kirk.

The kirkyard contains some interesting gravestones, including the 15th century stone coffin known as the Maiden Stone. The village of Tullibody grew around the medieval church, but in c1800 the Abercromby family moved it. The core of the new village was around Main Street and the Tron Tree. In the 19th century a tannery was built and the village began to grow. It expanded again in the 1950s, when new housing was built for a large influx of miners from Lanarkshire, who came to work in the short-lived Glenochil Colliery. Most of the old village was demolished and rebuilt. The Heritage Centre is run by Tullibody History Group and tells the fascinating story of the village and neighbouring Cambus. Displays include a model of Tullibody; a fully furnished doll's house modelled on Tullibody House, owned by the Abercomby family (an illustrated genealogy gives details of this remarkable family); a replica Victorian schoolroom and a 1940s-style kitchen; as well as details about significant people, such as William Burns Paterson, who founded what is now Alabama State University, and the baker, botanist and geologist Robert Dick (1811-1866), to whom a fine memorial has been erected in Tullibody.

Much of the stone from the earlier structure was probably used to build the new church.Built in neo-Perpendicular style, the church features buttresses to the sides of each bay which end in impressively tall, pointed finials. Stirling’s original design may have included a spire or tower, but it was never built.The octagonal bellcote over the north entrance houses a bell cast in Rotterdam in 1670 by Cornelius Ouderogge; this was removed from the medieval church which stood further north on Kirk Hill, refitted in its 18th century successor, then moved again to its present location.A horseshoe-shaped gallery was replaced in 1920 by a single gallery. The fine, three-light stained glass window of 1924 by Douglas Strachan was installed in memory of the Rev Joseph Conn.The kirkyard contains several interesting and elaborate gravestones, many of which were restored as part of the Historic Kirkyards Trail project of the Ochils Landscape Partnership programme. They shed light on the inhabitants of Tillicoultry as it developed into an industrial town, with many textile mills.

The 6th Earl of Mar was exiled after leading the 1715 Jacobite Uprising, his title and estate forfeited to the Government. His family bought the estate back and it was later managed by the 6th Earl's daughter Lady Frances Erskine. Her father had developed a road through Alloa to bring coal from his mines to the harbour, but in 1766 Lady Frances had wooden rails laid along its route to create a new wagon way. Later improvements ensured that the new wagon way made the transport of coal much more efficient and by 1775 Alloa was exporting over one third of Scotland’s total coal production.This walk will explore the surviving sections of the original wagon way through Alloa. The walk will take no more than 1 hour 45 minutes.Walk 2: Alloa House and Park Lady Frances's son John Francis Erskine inherited the Alloa estate in 1776. He improved it including creating a fish pond fed by water taken from the River Black Devon and with an elaborate dam and sluice system. His grandson, the 9th Earl of Mar, built Alloa House in the 1830s and his successor the Earl of Kellie, who inherited the estate in 1866, made many improvements, extended the house considerably, built a walled garden, new lodges and, probably c1870, an ice house near the fish pond.This walk will explore the surviving evidence for the Alloa House estate, including the walled garden and the fish pond.

In 1631 this was incorporated into Sauchie House, built by Alexander Schaw, who was knighted in 1633 by Charles I. In c1710 the family moved to their new mansion of Schawpark. A cottage was built against the south end of Sauchie House. The tower roof fell in c1858 and the bartizans (corner turrets) and gables collapsed c1890. Sauchie House was demolished in 1930 and the cottage soon afterwards. Sauchie Tower is owned by Clackmannanshire Heritage Trust, which has carried out remedial repairs. The Friends of Sauchie Tower were established to support the restoration of the tower. The group was awarded a Heritage Lottery Fund grant to carry out the project entitled Sauchie Tower and its Environs, which included an excavation and research on the family, site and surroundings.Clackmannanshire Heritage Trust and the Friends are planning to raise funds to complete the excavation of the site, finish the restoration of Sauchie Tower, conserve the ruins of Sauchie House and reshape the surrounding landscape.

It was the birthplace of Sir William Alexander, who had an illustrious career during the reign of James VI and I. In 1621 he began to establish a new colony called Nova Scotia, but the scheme failed and he lost money. Nonetheless, he improved Menstrie Castle and his town house in Stirling (Argyll's Lodging) in 1633, when he was invested 1st Earl of Stirling and Viscount Canada. In 1640, however, he died a bankrupt and broken man in London. The house was damaged during the Civil War. James Holburne acquired it in 1648 and his grandson sold it to Alexander Abercromby of Tullibody in 1719. Sir Ralph Abercromby, the famous military commander, was born there in 1734. The Abercromby family sold the estate in 1924.By 1951 the building was derelict, but was saved from destruction by a campaign led by the actor, broadcaster and conservationist Moultrie Kelsall. The restoration was completed in 1964. Most of the Castle was converted into flats, but two ground-floor rooms were restored as a display area. These are now owned by Clackmannanshire Council and are managed by the National Trust for Scotland.

The chancel was added in 1925 to accommodate the Rushworth and Dreaper organ. The interior has only been altered slightly, with 19th century pews and galleries remaining; the pulpit, chancel panelling, communion table and stalls were designed by J Jeffrey Waddell in 1925-6. The stained glass includes windows designed by A Ballantine & Son (1910), St Enoch Glass Studios (1949) and the Union Window which commemorates the union of this church and the West Church in 1979. Designed by Jennifer Campbell and Adam Robson, it illustrates the different aspects of caring by the church. The window was executed by Douglas Hogg.

It was leased to the Alloa Coal Company in 1843, but flooding, which had always been a huge problem, forced it to close in 1854. The company managed to reopen it in 1879, achieving this with new pit-head plant, including the very impressive Beam Engine House, which housed a Cornish-style beam pumping engine built by Neilson & Co in Glasgow in 1865. It could pump 2,560 gallons of water per minute out of the colliery. It took about a year to drain the pit, with several million gallons of water being pumped out every 24 hours. The steam engine was also used to drive machinery of all kinds and was in operation until 1932, when electric pumps were installed. Devon Colliery was the largest and longest lasting colliery in Clackmannanshire. It was served by the wagon way and mineral railway lines connecting it with the neighbouring Crophill pit and with the main line to Alloa and Tillicoultry. It closed in 1960, ending at least 450 years of coalmining in the area around Sauchie Tower. The beam engine was partly dismantled. The Beam Engine House was restored by Clackmannan District Council in 1993, by which time only the massive cast-iron beam and part of the pump-rod remained. It is one of the few surviving beam engines in Scotland and the only sign that a colliery ever existed on the site. It was converted to office space and, after sporadic use, was later sold to the Scottish SPCA, which is now developing plans to use it as an educational information centre.

He added a new west wing and probably the stable block and ice house, in c.1810-20. The ice house is buried on the slope below the stables. By the mid-19th century most country houses and estates had an ice house, to keep provisions cold and fresh and provide a supply of ice for fruit sherbets and table decorations. The introduction of refrigeration in the early 1900s rendered ice houses obsolete. This ice house is a fine example, consisting of an entrance passage leading into a heptagonal corridor around the main ice chamber, which is egg-shaped, with a flattened base and a hatch at the top through which to lower the ice. The corridor has six niches set into the inner walls, with stone storage shelves. There would have been three doors, to maintain a dry, even temperature and atmosphere for the ice.

The building has been described as ‘one of Scotland’s finest public baths and gymnasiums’. It closed at the end of 1986, then reopened as a gymnastic centre on 13thJanuary 1989 as The Speirs Centre, in memory of the Clackmannanshire boxer Tommy Speirs. It closed again in 2012 and reopened on 18th October 2014, with a new extension designed by LDN Architects.It now provides a wide range of services, including a library; local and family history research centre; Archives; Registry; and exhibitions on the history and heritage of the county.

The Archives include records of Clackmannanshire Council and its predecessor bodies (including property valuation rolls, school log books and burial records) and also contain privately donated collections from local companies, clubs, families and individuals, such as the Patons & Baldwins archive and the Johnstone of Alva Papers. There will also be displays relating to the history of the building and a look at what the county was like thirty years ago, to mark the 30th anniversary of Doors Open Days. Exhibition: Alloa Pottery - A CelebrationAlloa Pottery was established in c1783, but its heyday began when it was taken over in 1856 by Joseph Bailey, an Edinburgh china and glass merchant. His sons later ran the pottery, modernising, expanding and improving it to ensure its survival in an increasingly competitive market. W & J A Bailey's Alloa Pottery flourished, winning awards at international trade exhibitions, producing an extensive range of pottery and engraved glassware and claiming to hold a stock of 100,000 tea pots. It eventually closed in 1907. This new exhibition has been researched, devised and arranged by the Friends of Clackmannanshire Heritage and includes about 150 pieces from the county Heritage Collection.The Great Tapestry of Scotland - a new panel for ClackmannanshirePart of the Great Tapestry of Scotland was shown to acclaim in the Speirs Centre in 2017; since then a panel has been researched and designed to tell aspects of the story of Clackmannanshire. The main design has been drawn by Andrew Crummy and workshops have been held around the county to recruit volunteers and to select additional subjects for the panel. Visitors will be able to see the outline drawings on the linen panel and to find out more about the background to the project, which is being coordinated by Clackmannanshire TSI.

The mason was Tobias Bauchop, whose house still stands in Kirkgate. Around 1700, John, 6th Earl of Mar, built a private aisle with burial vault on the north side of the church. The old kirk became overcrowded and was condemned in 1816: it was mostly demolished and many stones reused to build the new parish church in Bedford Place. Designed by James Gillespie Graham, the Mar & Kellie Mausoleum was built on the site of the Mar Aisle. The original ceiling was painted brightly and decorated with flowers and Rococo panels. It was partly restored in 1994-6. The old kirkyard contains a good collection of early trade gravestones and fine memorials for many of the people responsible for the development of Alloa into a busy industrial town.
