The Battle of Bannockburn was fought between English forces led by Edward II and Scottish forces led by Robert the Bruce in June (23-24) of 1314. Attempting to relieve the Scottish siege of Sterling Castle, Edward II attacked without decisive results on the battle's first day. On the battle's second day, Robert led the Scots in an attack in which their cavalry (and the recklessness of several English nobles) proved to be the winning element. The English were routed, although Edward II managed to escape to safety.
Forces of Robert the Bruce captured Stirling Castle after a siege in 1314. This event should not be confused with the Battle of Stirling Bridge in September 1297, in which Scottish forces under Andrew de Morey and William Wallace soundly defeated the English forces near Stirling at the bridge over the river Forth.
