Tillicoultry lies nine miles to the east of Stirling at the foot of the Ochil hills.
It is on the A91 Stirling, St. Andrews road if forms the third of the four "Hillfoots Villages" of Clackmannanshire,( known as the "WEE COUNTY" Scotland's smallest County) lying to the east of Menstrie and Alva and to the west of Dollar. Alloa the county town lies four miles to the south-west on the banks of the Forth.

Tillicoultry is set in the backdrop of the Ochil Hills.

There is a old saying that the name Tillicoultry comes from when a Highlandman was taking a drove of cattle along the old road, and when passing a burn, none of the cattle took a drink,when, in astonishment, he exclaimed ' There's Tiel a coo try ' (Deil a cow dry) in the Highlandmans way of pronouncing the D; and hence the town got its name!

The other suggestion is that the origin of the name is Gaelic "Tullich-cul-tir" (once the burgh seal and still used by Tillicoultry Community Council) the mount at the back of the hill.
Hill climbing is the area is very popular. The glens are also very popular with walkers but care must be taken.
Tillicoultry is home to "Sterling" and Sterling Mills.
Please take time to visit the local shops.
