Hello everybody! Meet the team: Eddie, Tom, Harry, Oscar, Elisia and Keira. Today we will be teaching you all about The Battle of Bannockburn (Wetherby history). The battle took place on the 23rd to 24th June 1314 AD, as Robert the Bruce's side took the victory. He defeated King Edward II, although it didn't bring an end to war, as victory was only secured 14 years later. The whole reason the fight started was because he demanded supporters of him follow him, which the Scots didn't like, so they declared war! Fun fact: the victory is the most celebrated in Scottish history!
