War-Battle of Nevilles Cross (2nd Scottish)
The Battle of Neville's Cross took place less than half a mile to the west of Durham, England, on 17 October 1346, within sight of the Cathedral.[4] The battle was the result of the invasion of France by England whereupon, under the terms of the Auld Alliance, the Scottish invasion of northern England was required during the Hundred Years' War and the Second War of Scottish Independence. The battle ended with the rout of the Scots and the capture of their king, David II of Scotland. Notwithstanding the Scottish defeat, this sacrifice is generally regarded as crucial to the longer-term goal of securing English recognition of Scottish independence. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Neville's_Cross
