The “ship that never sailed” will host living history encampments from Medieval and Napoleonic eras up to the early 20th century. Visitors were also treated to arena shows with musketry performances and were also offered the chance to have a go at stonemasonry, as well as enjoying bird watching from the battlements. 

‘Siege on the Forth’ will take place on Sunday 8 September from 12pm – 4pm. 

Tickets for the event can be bought in advance online at alittlehistory.scot.

Entry is free for Historic Scotland members.
