Halidon Hill, Battle of

A Dictionary of World History | 2000 | Â© A Dictionary of World History 2000, originally published by Oxford University Press 2000. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

Halidon Hill, Battle of (19 July 1333) A battle fought near Berwick-on-Tweed, on the border between England and Scotland, which saw a major victory for Edward BALLIOL over the nationalist Scots. Balliol had been crowned King of Scotland in 1332 but subsequently driven out of the kingdom: his victory at Halidon Hill, which was achieved with the help of English archers supplied to him by EDWARD III, regained him his kingdom — at the price of doing homage for it to the English crown.
