The city of Stirling is situated in the heart of Scotland and has been described as the brooch the clasps together the Highlands and the Lowlands. It lies in Scotland's central belt, seen by many as the region that could decide the outcome of the referendum on independence. Sharmini Selvarajah spends the final days of the campaign in the city following local people as they make up their minds which way to cast their ballots. How did Stirling, in the centre of a country split down the middle on its future, decide whether to remain part of the UK or whether to leave the union?
