| Date: 23/24 June Stirling, Scotland This atmospheric spot is the site of Robert the Bruce’s famous victory over the English. Here, in 1314, Bruce gathered his men to take on the army of King Edward II. Despite facing a greater number of professional troops, Bruce’s men routed the English forces – a victory that meant freedom for Scotland from oppressive English rule. The sense of history here is tangible and Bannockburn is still a focus for Scottish pride today. You can find out what inspired this great Scottish victory at the Bannockburn Heritage Centre and walk the battlefield under the gaze of Robert the Bruce himself, immortalised in a statue by Pilkington Jackson. The Battle is combined with an historic market and living history displays. Admission: ? Contact: Email |
