Why would the Scots abandon Flodden Hill for Branxton Hill? This is the view from Branxton Hill looking SE to Flodden Hill: see the perfect glacis- like slope which provides a perfect killing ground for the Scottish guns. The English still have to march up Hill to attack. The Scots would have had more time to prepare. The only logical reason for abandoning this position would be if James was trying to run for home but got caught by the English on Branxton Hill.

The dastardly Earl of Surrey having outflanked James's formidable position on Flodden Hill, now cut off his lines of communication to Scotland and advanced upon the Scots from the north. Those poor old Scottish gunners now had to up sticks and drag their guns over this ground to place them on its highest point, Branxton Hill in anticipation of the English assault.

On a clear day such as today, on 9th September 1513, king James IV of Scotland could have commanded all he surveyed, but the weather was not too fine that day.

Our Story

The Cultural Experience based in Salisbury, Wiltshire, England, was formed by Alan Rooney in 2009 after turning his passion for history and travel into a business proposition.

The Company now employs a small team of travel professionals who plan and organise over 70 tours a year and has access to many more historians and academics to help deliver and guide the tours on the ground.

The company ethos is based on three principles:


  • Using sound research and planning to create a three dimensional version of history (human, time and space) - and to place the colourful characters and exciting events concerned at the very locations they came together.
