The Society’s Annual General Meeting will be held on Saturday 22 November 2025 at 2:30pm at Stirling Agricultural Centre.
The meeting will again be held in hybrid format. If you would like to attend in person, directors and staff would be delighted to meet you. If you are unable to join us in person, do join us by Zoom: please register to receive a meeting link.
At 1:45pm, prior to the formal business, Scottish historian, Prof. Christopher Whatley, will give a talk entitled “Harvie’s Dyke, the people, their liberty and the Clyde”, the story of an access dispute in the 1820s, involving a landowner, workers and a wall! The talk will be based on his recently published book.

The venue is 5 km from Stirling Rail Station. Follow National Cycle Network route 765 north along Goosecroft Road, Wallace Street, and on a cycleway under the Customs Roundabout to Stirling Bridge. Turn left here following blue signs for Forth Valley College along Ramsay Place and Drip Road. At the college, turn onto a shared use path on the right side of Drip Road which leads to the Highland Gate service area.
