About
クイックファクト: Walk the open moor and you'll notice the landscape is strangely flat, a quiet expanse where cannon smoke and boots once churned the turf. Archaeologists and metal-detector hobbyists have turned up buttons, musket balls, and personal items that make ordinary soldier stories painfully immediate.
ハイライト: Stand where clan lines collided and you'll hear the visitor-centre audio bring to life the last orders from Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Duke of Cumberland, voices swelling as you watch the low stone markers. A striking detail many miss is the 1746 diary extracts played in the exhibition and the handful of regimental buttons on display, tiny objects that let you almost feel the weight of a soldier's coat.
Insider tips
- Wear waterproof layers and sturdy boots, the moor is often wet and windy.
- Watch the short orientation film first, then use the included audio guide to follow the marked trail across the battlefield.
- Photograph from the central cairn for the best wide view of the memorial stones and moorland setting.
- Visit at opening or late afternoon on weekdays to avoid large coach groups and school parties.
