City of Stirling Reel was given to the Stirling & District RSCDS Branch by Roy Goldring after he taught at a very
successful day school in 2005. Stirling was given city status as one of the 6 new millenium cities hence the name
given to the dance.
The tune, The Nether Bailey, was composed for the dance by Nicol McLaren of the Glencraig Band. The Nether
Bailey is thought to be the oldest part of Stirling Castle.
