Culloden: The Last Battle that Shattered Highland Identity

from The Proper British History Podcast: Kings, Queens, Wars, Empire, Politics, Revolutions, Royalty and the Historical Great Britain · host Podily

The episode examines Culloden, the last major battle fought in Britain’s borders in 1746, where a weary Jacobite force met disciplined British regulars on a boggy moor. It looks at how exhaustion, terrain and superior artillery turned a desperate Highland charge into slaughter, and why the subsequent reprisals and Proscription Act effectively ended clan autonomy.
