Overview

The route is 4 miles (6.5 km) long and passes by seven out of eight march stones marking the old parliamentary boundary. The Perambulation, organised by Linlithgow Civic Trust, will be headed up by the Provost of the Deacons' Court, supported by flagbearers, halberdiers and the town piper, who play at each of the march stones. The walk begins outside St Ninian Craigmaillen Church, Falkirk Road and proceeds along the south shore of Linlithgow Loch, past Linlithgow Palace and the Peel, then passing St Michael's RC Church, West Lothian County Cricket Ground to join the Union Canal and then along the canal towpath to Manse Road.
