Description
The battlefields of England and Scotland are a lesser-known but significant part of our national heritage. Today, these sites are used in various ways, from modern visitor centres to complete abandonment. From the Battle of Ashdown in AD 871 to the Jacobite defeat at Culloden in 1746, this book explores seventy battles that took place across England and Scotland. The author provides historical context for each battle, describes the action in relation to the landscape, and discusses what remains of the site today. By examining these sites, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the history and geography of the region.
