The Battle of Pinkie Cleuch - 10th September 1547

Welcome to this blog, which I have set up mainly as a way of discussing what we can do the 'raise the profile' of the Battle of Pinkie Cleuch -- which took place in the fields between Wallyford, Inveresk, Musselburgh and Whitecraig on 10th September, 1547 -- 'Black Saturday'.

Please use the index to the blog 'archive' to see earlier blogs; I am greatly looking forward to receiving your comments.
