Description: Culloden was the last battle on British soil. It marked the end of clan culture and was the harbinger of the Highland Clearances. It ensured the inevitability of the American Revolution and increased the outpouring of Scots across the globe. It is the only battle that British Army regiments are not permitted to include in their battle honours; the only battle that Bonnie Prince Charlie ever lost; and the only battle that the Duke of Cumberland ever won. Culloden is a battlefield a graveyard and an iconic site that draws people from all parts of the world. And as they come they bring with them their stories and their father's father's stories. These stories tell of civil war of love of the unexpected and even of the supernatural. They are peopled by the second - sighted by clan chiefs and by others who have kept family secrets for centuries. The battlefield is a poignant location resonant with past deeds and emotive memories. These Culloden tales are offered as a unique record to the power of the place.
