Overview

Stirling is a small town in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, approximately 15 km from the Adelaide city centre. It is administered by the Adelaide Hills Council. Neighbouring townships are Crafers and Aldgate. Other nearby towns are Heathfield and Bridgewater. Of those five, Stirling has the largest commercial strip, and used to have the greatest number and widest variety of shops, and the only bank. Once there were multiple banks but all but one have left. A fire destroyed the main shopping complex in the main street in 2023, and will be rebuilt by autumn 2027. Stirling East, a similar sized area towards Aldgate, is home to a school.
