Inventory of Historic Battlefields in Scotland (original) (raw)

The Inventory of Historic Battlefields is a heritage register listing nationally significant battlefields in Scotland. The inventory was published for consultation in December 2010 by Historic Scotland, an agency of the Scottish Government, and launched as the Inventory in May 2011. Seventeen sites were included in the first phase of the inventory, with a number of other sites under consideration for inclusion at a later date. By the end of 2012 the inventory had expanded to 39 sites. The list is maintained by Historic Environment Scotland, the successor the Historic Scotland. As of 2019 there are 40 battlefields on the inventory, the most recent addition being the Battle of Sark which was listed in 2016.
