Old Photograph Beaton's Mill Scotland

Old photograph of Beaton's Mill near Bannockburn village located just South of Stirling, Scotland. This is where King James III of Scotland was murdered on the 11th of June 1488, following the Battle of Sauchieburn, itself fought near the south bank of the Bannock Burn. The Battle of Sauchieburn was fought on 11 June 1488, at the side of Sauchie Burn, a stream about two miles south of Stirling, Scotland. The battle was fought between the followers of King James III of Scotland and a large group of rebellious Scottish nobles including Alexander Home, 1st Lord Home, nominally led by the king's 15 year old son, Prince James, Duke of Rothesay.
