As we approach the 300th anniversary of the birth of Prince Charles Edward Stewart, on Hogmanay, a significant reappraisal of the Jacobite period in Scotland’s history is under way. In particular, the period directly after the Battle of Culloden is now being understood to have been a time in which the Jacobites were still highly active. So too was the British State in its efforts to maintain control of Scotland. At various YES events pre-lockdown, many people were intrigued to see copies of the map produced by the Stennis Historical Society. This shows the cantonments, or troop locations of the British Army in Scotland after Culloden. The creation, and dissemination of this map illustrates a couple of things – not just that Scottish history has been distorted and/or suppressed with the active complicity of all our supposedly independent institutions dealing with Scotland’s past, but that history can be revisited by people without professional historical qualifications.
