Here in 1314, in one of the defining moments in Scottish history, King Robert the Bruce routed the English forces of King Edward II to win a much-longed-for freedom for the Scots.

Today, in the Heritage Centre close to the Borestone (Bruce's command post for the battle), you can experience the epic encounter in an audio-visual show and exhibition.

And there are exciting plans for improvements onsite for 2014. Visit www.nts.org.uk/bannockburn2014 and prepare for battle.

There is a specially produced short film in the Visitor Centre which relates the story of the battle through the eyes of a young boy
