ST Where Was I?

[minesapint]

I'm totally lost with this one this week. Is the battle the Battle Of Naseby? Thomas Fairfax was certainly born in 1612, but I can't find a bog south of the site and there is no lake adjacent to the battlefield as far as I can make out.

I also can't find any reference to the "Forward".

Can someone help please?

I haven't done this , but looking at the link , is this not the canal?

No direct answers . . . but here's a couple of helpful clues . . . . .

Type into Google - Walk From Falkirk to Croy - the name of the bog is there.

And to find the summit, look here -

Thanks all. I was way off the mark with this one this week!
