A little history
Carron Company's ironworks — founded 1759 — were among the most important in the world. The carronade, the short naval cannon that transformed sea warfare in the Napoleonic era, was invented here. The Carron Works helped make Scotland the world's greatest iron producer.
The Carron Works heritage is celebrated locally. The Forth Valley hospital for modern contrast. Larbert and Stenhousen have good local amenities. The Falkirk Wheel and Kelpies are a short drive.
