Battle of Loudoun Hill, 1307 The real Braveheart First War of Scottish Independence, Part 4

🚩 Uplevel your news reading experience with Ground News using my link: 🚩 PLAYLIST - First Scottish War of Independence 🚩 In Ayrshire, some 10 miles from Kilmarnock, near the village of Darvel, stands a lonely but imposing outcrop of rock, a remnant of Scotland's volcanic pre-history - Loudoun Hill. It was here on May 10th, 1307 that Robert the Bruce scored his first decisive victory over the forces of Edward I, the Plantagenet King of England, and began his delivery of Scotland's independence. Some would argue that in winning the war, Bruce not only freed his land from the occupying Southern forces, but unified the fractured country into the Scotland that we recognise today. 🚩 Support HistoryMarche on Patreon and get ad-free early access to our videos for as little as $1: 🚩 This video was m
