On 16 April 1746, the final Jacobite Rising came to a brutal head. To restore the Stuart monarchy to the British thrones, Jacobite supporters gathered to fight the Duke of Cumberland’s government troops. It was the last pitched battle on British soil and, in less than an hour, around 1,500 men were slain – more than 1,000 of them Jacobites.
