William Wallace and the Battle of Stirling Bridge

What really happened at the Battle of Stirling Bridge?

William Wallace - Scotland's greatest hero. But who was he really? And where did he come from?

(With thanks to Stirling County RFC for allowing me to film and GP for the drone footage.)

Follow my adventures as I travel through the landscapes and history of Scotland. I make quick, quirky and (hopefully) funny content about Scotland's past, people and scenery.

I look for the hidden stories, forgotten people and beautiful scenery of Scotland and try to find the funny in the darkness, obscurity and occasional absurdity of our history.

Thank you, for sharing your wonderful, history (good, bad and indifferent ) your voice is a true (story teller) !

It's amazing to me that the US version of what happened in Scotland is so different from the Scotland one.
I guess time and distance changes so many stories.
Thank you. I like your version so much better.

Robert I’ve got a complaint!..at the risk of sounding to demanding..your vids don’t run long enough..they’re fast becoming my highlight of the week mate!..yes some may say I lead a sheltered life?..but for eight minutes & sometimes longer I’m truly entertained..hence the reason for my suggestion to lengthen the vids..hope this doesn’t sound to sycophantish but I’m really appreciating your work!..Regards Michael 🇦🇺

Thank you for the video.
I just found out the English side of the family is actually Scottish. Not sure why they didn't know that but DNA doesn't lie!

I just love your videos. If you haven’t already, please do one about Robert the Bruce killing the Red Comyn. I’m a Cummins and my friend’s a Bruce, so we we argue about what happened.

Love your stories. I was definitely sceptical about the sword belonging to W Wallace…unless he was a giant!

[KnitWitch]

You and your brother have convinced me to travel to your beautiful country. Any advice on the best months?

As a humble piper….never bagpipes sounded at Sterling Castle Battle….
And…Edward “Longshanks “ was called by the King of Scotland as an arbitrator and mediator in the soon failed and vacant succession to the Scottish throne and Crown

Edward the first wasnt called the hammer of the scots until after he was dead.
