Okay i will risk the smackdown on this,
I will start with my answer but nailing the monoku word by word will take a bit.
Answer:
The National Wallace Monument
brave heart would be funny if you meant this which had to be put in a cage.
Though i think you are looking for a more specific point or specific example among the many
On the monoku;
I broke it down from,
Brave stone heart forth Barksdale tower
To,
Brave heart stone tower forth Barksdale
brave heart would be funny if you meant this which had to be put in a cage.
stone tower is umm, a stone tower?
Forth Valley is part of the view.
Barksdale is where I'm stuck if any of the above is correct or even close as there is apparently no geographical feature/location associated with that "name" in the British Isles. Searching i pull up hits for tower houses and an air force base in Louisiana.
So i don't really dig on pop culture so my final guess on Barksdale would be the character from the wire, which could be a sneaky word-play clue to stand-in for the cage around the statue.

$\begingroup$ There you go! Yes, I did mean the thing that had to be put in a cage. :) So just Barksdale to go then....... $\endgroup$– A ESep 4, 2015 at 17:36

1$\begingroup$ Ah, I don't think it's sad. My interpretation of it is that the local residents didn't like Mel Gibson very much, and didn't want WW to be thought of as him. Which is quite inspiring in a way! :) $\endgroup$– A ESep 4, 2015 at 17:42

1$\begingroup$ Perhaps Avon Barkdale? Legend has it that William Wallace and his followers hid in Wallace Cave by the river Avon. $\endgroup$ Sep 5, 2015 at 10:26
