Battle of
bannockburn, BANNOCKBURN RIVER ROBERT THE BRUCE ROBERT THE BRUCE
On Palm Sunday 1306 Robert the
Bruce raised the Royal Standard at Scone and in the presence of the Bishop
of Glasgow, Moray and St. Andrews was crowned King of Scots. By early
1309 Robert the Bruce controlled most of Scotland north of the Forth and
Clyde. In the year of 1311 he invaded the North of England sacking Durham
and Hartlepool and over the following three years conquered the English
garrisons of Perth, Dundee, Roxborough, Dumfries and Edinburgh leaving
only Stirling in English hands. On June 24th 1314 Robert the Bruce defeated
the English army under King Edward at the battle of Bannockburn. The war
dragged on until the peace treaty was signed in 1328 recognising Bruce
as King Robert I and Scotland as an independent Kingdom. Robert the Bruce
died in 1329.
Battle of Bannockburn
With the full might of England's army gathered before the besieged Stirling
Castle, Edward II Plantagenate is confident of victory. To the west of
Bannockburn, Robert Bruce, King of Scots, kneels to pray with his men
and commends his soul to God. Patiently awaiting the coming onslaught
in tightly packed schiltroms, his spearmen and archers are well prepared
for battle. Unknown to the English, the open marsh of no man's land conceals
hidden pits and calthrops, major obstacles for any mounted charge. Despite
Clifford's and Beaumont's premature and unsuccessful attempt to relieve
Stirling the day before, years of victory have caused the brave English
knights to regard their Scottish foes with contempt. So, without waiting
for the 'flower of the forest' (archers) to weaken the enemy formations,
the order is hurriedly given to attack! With one rush, hundreds of mounted
knights led by the impetuous Earl of Gloucester, thunder headlong through
the boggy ground straight for the impenetrable mass of spears, hurling
themselves into defeat and death. With dash and courage the knights try
to force a way through but the infantry stand firm. There is no room to
manoeuvre. Everywhere horses and men crash to the ground. Casualties amongst
the English nobility are horrific. Bruce seizes the moment and orders
the exultant army to advance. The English recoil and are pushed back into
the waters of the Bannockburn where many perish in the crush to escape
the deadly melee. Edward II, his army destroyed, flees with his bodyguard
for the safety of the castle but is refused refuge and has to fight his
way south to England. For Robert Bruce and Scotland, victory is complete.

In Single Combat by Mark Churms.
Robert The Bruce dispatches Sir Henry De Bohun before the Battle of Bannockburn. Far ahead of Edward IIs main army, marching from Falkirk to relieve Stirling Castle, rides the English vanguard. Late on that day, 23rd June 1314, these horsemen advance along the Roman road and cross Bannockburn. Eager for combat Gloucesters bold Barons and Knights spur on their chargers towards the gathered Scottish infantry. Robert the Bruce, King of Scots, not yet fully dressed for battle, sits astride a grey pony. He rides out ahead of his formations to observe the enemys advance. One of the English Knights, Sir Henry De Bohun, seeing the Kings vulnerable position, gallops ahead of his fellows to engage Bruce in single combat. Undaunted, the King holds his ground. Skillfully turning his mount away from the thrust of the Knights deadly lance in one movement he swings his battle axe down upon his enemys head with such force that the handle is shattered and the unfortunate attackers skull is split in two. In triumph, Bruce returns to the cheers of his countrymen who before the day is out will soon deliver a similar fate upon many other English noblemen. As the light fades the Riders retire but both armies know well that the main battle of Bannockburn has yet to begin.

The Battle of Bannockburn by Mark Churms.
With the full might of Englands Army now gathered to do battle before the besieged Stirling Castle, the young Edward II Plantagenate is confident of victory over the enemy. To the west of the Bannockburn, Robert Bruce, King of Scots kneels to pray with his men and commends his soul to God. The Scottish battle lines are prepared. The Cavalry is in reserve to the rear behind the spearmen and archers (known as Flower of the forest) in tightly packed Schiltrons patiently awaiting the coming onslaught. Unknown to the English, the open marshy ground of no mans land conceals hidden pits and trenches, major obstacles for any mounted charge. Despite Cliffords and de Beaumonts premature and unsuccessful attempt to relieve the castle the day before, years of victory have taught the brave English knights to regard their Scottish foes with contempt. So, without waiting for the bowmen to effectively weaken the enemy lines the order is hurriedly given to attack! With one rush hundreds of mounted knights led by the impetuous Earl of Gloucester thunder headlong through the boggy ground straight for the impenetrable forest of spears and into defeat and death. With dash and courage the knights try to force a way through the mass of spears but the Scots stand firm. The momentum of the charge is lost and there is no room to manoeuvre. Everywhere horses and men crash to the ground, casualties amongst the English are horrific. Robert Bruce seizes the moment and orders the exultant army to advance. The Englishmen are slowly pushed back into the waters of the Bannockburn. All discipline is lost as the soldiers and horses madly scramble for the far bank of the burn. Many drown or perish in the crush to escape the deadly melee. Edward II, with his army destroyed, flees with his bodyguard for the safety of Stirling Castle but is refused refuge and has to fight his way south to England. For Robert Bruce and Scotland victory is complete.
