ALLOA GUIDE Independent ideas for your day out

A short town walk through local identity / ALLOA

Alloa High Street and the Sentinels

Look for Rob Mulholland’s reflective Sentinel figures at the top of High Street, then take a short wander through the surrounding town centre. The work gives a different way into Alloa’s story from the tower: contemporary public art sits within everyday shopping streets. Treat this as a modest self-guided stop, with time to look closely, rather than a formal museum or a long sculpture trail.

Before you go

The wider Clackmannanshire art trail includes dispersed roadside works. This recommendation stays in the town centre and does not require crossing roads to reach roundabout sculptures.

The reflected shapes can make a brief observation game. Keep children clear of traffic and respect the sculpture rather than climbing it.
