      We have some battle fields in South Carmarthenshire - the Welsh uprisings from various times, there are many. Court Henry 1257 is one, if I remember the date correct. Owain Glyndwr and Carreg Cennen Castle up in the hills, c.1400. Also English Civil War times, Oliver Cromwell and that.

    Another brilliant well read video. 👍My Clan fought for Bruce at Bannockburn. Chances are i might have had ancestors on the English side too though.

    And King James (1 of England 6 of Scotland) was descended from Robert. Meaning the king who founded Scottish independence is the ancestor of the king who founded British unionism.

    • @Hrossey

      Therefore voting independence against Robert De Bruce's his ancestor, and King Of Scots is treasonous to their memory, and everything you stood for.
      Thats a tricky one to get over to an SNP Communist.

      Not sure Robert founded Scottish independence so much as preserved it.

    Is there a list anywhere that tells who fought with Robert at the Battle of Bannockburn? Which Scottish knights?

    The first Culloden, over four hundred years earlier. Kidnapped! Great movie that is on Culloden, from start to finish, and not many people know that. Vivien Heilbron, oh yes.👍😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    My Scottish Clan were busy in southern Ireland slaughtering natives on behalf of King Robert The Bruces brother . So we were not present at Bannockburn.

    Our families fought for Stirling and Scotland but more and more the elected councils are imposing LEZ, ULEZ and ultimately "15 minute" cities but wait a minute, the towns and cities belong to the people who live there, not the government or council. If the people wish these anti vehicle policies, why not have a local vote not a vote open to non residents who probably have never visited and have no skin in the game? In Edinburgh the "pro cyclist lobby" voted on local restrictions, outnumbering the locals many times over, how can this be fair?
