  Bannockburn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bannockburn is a village immediately south of the city of Stirling in Scotland.
Marshy land surrounding the Bannock Burn was the site of the Battle of Bannockburn fought in 1314—one of the pivotal battles of the 13th/14th century Wars of Independence between Scotland and England.
Growth of both Stirling and Bannockburn during the 19th and 20th centuries means that the two now form a contiguous conurbation, and Bannockburn was latterly incorporated into the city (then royal burgh) of Stirling.
