Denny's name comes from the Gaelic "dun", describing its position on a raised height — and local tradition ties the town to one of Scotland's most famous kings.
A night with Robert the Bruce
According to one historical account, the body of Robert the Bruce rested overnight in what is now Denny in June 1329, while being carried to its burial at Dunfermline Abbey.
From the Knights Hospitaller to a weaving town
Denny was reputedly held by the Knights Templar and was certainly a property of the Knights Hospitaller. Centuries later it became a significant centre of woollen manufacture, producing tartans and shawls, with around 160,000 pounds of wool consumed annually.
