Sweets in Bonnybridge: Scotland's UFO Capital

Bonnybridge's population stood at around 5,070 in the 2022 census, a Falkirk town built around an old bridge over the Bonny Water.

The Falkirk Triangle

Bonnybridge has a stranger claim to fame than most places in this series: it's widely known as the UFO capital of Scotland, sitting at the centre of what's been nicknamed the Falkirk Triangle. Reported sightings date back to at least 1992, and the area has reportedly logged hundreds of reports a year since, enough that a local councillor pushed three successive UK governments for an official inquiry. The Ministry of Defence's position has stayed consistent throughout: no evidence that UK airspace has been compromised.

No sweet shop on record

Whatever's in the skies above Bonnybridge, we haven't found a sweet shop on its high street, past or present, so it's not something we're going to claim.
