Positioned within the Forth Valley, Clackmannan is 1.8 miles (2.9 kilometres) south-east of Alloa and also 3.2 miles (5.1 kilometres) south of Tillicoultry. The town is within the county of Clackmannanshire, of which it was formerly the county town, until Alloa surpassed it in dimension and also value. According to a 2009 quote the population of the settlement of Clackmannan is 3,348 citizens. The name of the community refers to the Stone of Manau or Stone of Mannan, a pre-Christian monolith that can be seen in the town square close to the Tolbooth or Tollbooth Tower, which dates from 1592. During the 12th century, the location developed part of the lands controlled by the abbots of Cambuskenneth. Later on it became associated with the Bruce household, who, during the 14th century, built a calculated tower-house. It still stands above the community according to Historic Scotland, however access is forbidden (due to subsidence). A crater on asteroid 253 Mathilde is named after Clackmannan. Because Mathilde is a dark, carbonaceous body, its craters have actually been named after well-known coalfields from across the world. The Clackmannan Team is the name provided to a suite of rocks of late Dinantian and also Namurian age laid down during the Carboniferous duration in the Midland Valley of Scotland. The war memorial was made by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1919.
