Stirling Council is to commission the repair of the historic Christie Clock, destroyed in a botched repair job in September 2023.

Stirling ’s historic Christie Clock is to be restored using as much of its existing stonework as possible – costing an eye-watering £873,000 from the public purse.

The sum to repair the clock will include the £678,460 cost, plus £95,000 in fees, £100,000 for contingency – totalling £873, 460. The historic clock was smashed to the ground in a botched repair job in September last year, leaving Stirling locals fuming over the manner in which the structure was brought down.
