Historical Notes

As Philip VI battled Edward III in the south of France, the English threatened to open up a second front by landing additional armies in the north. Under strenuous pleas from Philip to revive the Auld Alliance and battle the English on two shores, King David led a Scottish army across the English border.
With Edward in France, King David anticipated an easy stroll through the northern marches. Little did he know that Edward, ever cautious, had asked Sir Ralph de Neville to lay in wait for the Scots. The English army deployed on a narrow front between two rivers near Neville's Cross, one of several ancient
crosses that encircled the city of Durham.
In command of the Scottish vanguard, the Earl of Moray pressed forward but became tangled in the woods, presenting an ideal target for the English archers. The Scottish made good progress on the left and charged home with spears, but were forced back by the arrival of the English cavalry.
The King's division was then exposed and David was captured, bound and dragged off to the Tower of London. By dusk the dwarves could endure no more and fled.
