The Battle of Flodden Field took place near the village of Branxton in Northumberland on Sept 9, 1513. It was the largest battle ever waged between armies from England and Scotland and, after a day of mass slaughter, ended in a decisive victory for England and the death of Scottish King James IV, the last reigning monarch to die in battle.
