Favicons

Hi,

Can anyone tell me exactly how to add a favicon? I've currently got a plugin which works fine, but i'm trying to do away with plugins which are a little uneccessary.. in this case it's just a line of code, but i don't know where to put it!

I've put a 16x16 favicon.ico in the root directory and child theme folder. Then i've tried placing '<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/favicon.ico" />' in various places in wrapper.php and header.php, but it doesn't seem to work. I've been clearing claches and restarting the browsers, but i can't seem to manage!

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks & regards, Angus
