Stirling Albion have signed 18-year-old Hearts midfielder Angus Beith on loan until early January.
The Scotland U19 internationalist has been a regular in the Tynecastle club's U20 side and made his first-team bow in the Petrofac Training Cup tie against Livingston in August.
Beith could make his debut for Stuart McLaren's League 1 outfit in Saturday's William Hill Scottish Cup fourth-round tie against Raith Rovers at Forthbank.
