Plans to transform the much-loved Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Museum at Stirling Castle have been given a nal go-ahead by the National Lottery, which has awarded the ‘modern and exciting’ project just less than £1 million.
The award is the most signi cant boost to date for the museum’s Thin Red Line Appeal, a fundraising campaign under the patronage of Prince William, the Earl of Strathearn.
The plan will improve the museum’s ability to interpret for visitors and commemorate the history of one of Scotland’s great regiments. Traditionally based at Stirling Castle, the Argylls have played a notable role in the history of Scotland and the United Kingdom since the Napoleonic Wars.
