- Battle of Flodden Hill
Battle-of-Flodden 1513
Sept 1513
flodden, branxton hill, nr millfield , Northumberland
Robert Bruce lost his life in the battle of Flodden, Branxton Hill, near Millfield, Northumberland. The field was so soaked with blood that many of the Scots removed their shoes to gain a better purchase on the slippery ground. The Scots casualties were heavy, said to be close to 10,000 killed, including the King, nine earls, fourteen lords and a handful of prominent clerics, including the Archbishop of St Andrews. English casualties amounted to some 4,000.
