The Battle of Pinkie Cleugh (1547) - which took place in the fields south of Musselburgh - is one of the most important battles in Scottish history. For the past two years, Pinkie Cleugh Battlefield Group has been working to help enhance the experience of visitors to this interesting and rewarding site. Now we are embarking on a project which will culminate in the creation of a Battlefield Trail in time for the annual anniversary of the battle, on September 10th, 2013.
