The account
Robert the Bruce broke a far larger English army at Bannockburn in 1314 and won Scotland's independence; the boggy field still hides the arms of the fight.
Leads, where the trail points now
- The field is at Stirling, Scotland, and arms, shot, and relics still come out of the ground there.
- Detecting or digging needs landowner or park permission, and any significant find should be recorded; many battlefields are protected.
- Work the documented account of Bannockburn to learn where the fighting, the camps, and the rout actually ran before you look.
