Statue of William Wallace, Stone memorial in Scottish Borders, Scotland.
The 7-meter stone statue near River Tweed depicts William Wallace standing tall with intricate details carved by sculptor John Smith in sandstone material.
The Scottish Borders memorial, constructed in 1814, honors William Wallace who led Scottish forces against England during the Wars of Scottish Independence.
The statue forms part of the Dryburgh complex, where visitors learn about Scottish resistance through educational displays and historical materials.
The William Wallace Trust maintains the memorial, which remains accessible throughout the year without entry fees or time restrictions.
Located away from main tourist routes, the statue stands in a secluded area reached by an unmarked dirt path through dense vegetation.
