Forthside Barracks is a military installation in Stirling, Scotland.
Forthside Barracks were built as an ordnance depot in 1899. It became the depot of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders before they vacated the place in 1999. It is now the home of 51st Infantry Brigade but parts are due to close by 2017.
In November 2016 the Ministry of Defence announced that the facility, as well as the adjacent Meadowforth Barracks, would close in 2022.
