On 23rd July 1745 Prince Charles Edward Stuart, son of James 'The Old Pretender' landed on the Isle of Eriskay off the west coast of Scotland. This was the start of the 'Forty-Five' Jacobite Rebellion. The following events culminated in the last major battle to be fought on British soil? Culloden.

1701     12 June     Act of Settlement passed by Parliament, ensured that if William III and Princess Anne (later Queen Anne) should die without heirs, the succession to the throne should pass to Sophia of Hanover, granddaughter of James I, and to her heirs, if they were Protestants. The house of Hanover, which ruled Great Britain from 1714, owes its claim to this act.
6 Sept     Death of the deposed James II. Louis XIV of France recognises his son as James III, later known as the 'Old Pretender'.
1708     23 March     A French naval squadron attempted unsuccessfully to land the Old Pretender on the Firth of Forth near Edinburgh.

Jacobite with Flag HUK

4 Dec     Jacobites reach Derby, just 150 miles from London. Due to lack of support Lord George Murray and the other chiefs advise Charles to return to Scotland and wait for French help.
18 Dec     Arguably the last 'battle' to take place on English soil, the Clifton Moor Skirmish saw the retreating Jacobites meet the Duke of Cumberland's forces at Clifton in Penrith. Twelve Jacobites and fourteen of the Duke's men were killed, with the English being buried in the Clifton churchyard and the Scots under an oak tree (known locally as the Rebel Tree), where a plaque still remains.
Jacobite Battle HUK

1746     17 Jan     Back in Scotland the Jacobites fail to capture Stirling Castle, but then defeat General Henry Hawley's army at the Battle of Falkirk Muir.

16 April     Against the advice of his chiefs, Charles lined up the Jacobite army ?  hungry and tired ?  on the flat moor of Culloden. It was to be the last major battle fought on British soil. In less than an hour Cumberland's cannon destroyed the military threat of Jacobitism.
