Battle of Bannockburn Experience

One of Scotland's proudest moments

It was at the Battle of Bannockburn that “Proud Edward’s Army” was “sent… home to think again”, as the unofficial Scottish national anthem, Flower of Scotland (as sung here) describes.

Now a mighty equestrian statue of Robert the Bruce looks out onto the countryside where his troops routed a much larger English force in 1314.

The slaughter paved the way for the Declaration of Arbroath (1320) and Scottish independence from England. The site's freely accessible to the public, but there’s not really that much to see. But you can look out onto the rolling countryside and ponder what the scene must have been – it’s thought the centre of the battle was on marshy land about a mile west.
