Battle of Stirling Bridge

Battle of Stirling Bridge

How Wallace and Moray won the battle They chose the battle field. They placed their army between the River Forth and the Ochil Hills. They faced the Bridge. Men mainly fought on foot with spears and daggers. Used the schiltrom. Few knights on horseback. Bridge was very narrow. Scots waited until a lot of the English had crossed, or were on the bridge, then attacked. English got slaughtered, trampled or drowned.

How Cressingham lost the battle English over confident. Had more knights on horseback, and spearmen & archers + more experience. Cressingham ordered his men to cross the bridge, instead of walking a few extra miles to the ford.
