In 1918, Stirling Burghs was abolished and Stirling was then represented by the
Stirling & Falkirk Burghs and from 1974
Stirling, Falkirk & Grangemouth constituencies. Along with
Clackmannanshire the county was meanwhile represented by
Clackmannan and Eastern Stirlingshire and

The modern constituency of Stirling was established in 1983. In 2005 the west portion of
