"Clackmannanshire From Ice to Glass" is a local history website for children. We hope it will be enjoyed by adults too!

"Clackmannanshire From Ice to Glass" is the website of the book of the same name written by Jannette Archibald and the pupils of Primary 5 at St John's School, Alloa in 2000. Some additional content has been added.

The book was written for children so that they would find out how their great-grandparents and grandparents lived. In particular, looking at what they worked at, how they enjoyed themselves and how the town of Alloa became one of Scotland's first industrial towns. You will see why the smallest county in Scotland developed so many industries during the 19th century.

This website tells the story of Clackmannanshire from ancient times right through to the present day using images and animations.
