The Battle of Otterburn took place in August 1388, a border skirmish
during the Anglo-Scottish Wars. Despite estimates claiming the English
had a three to one advantage over the Scots, the battle went poorly for
them. The Scots took a decisive victory, with exhaustion from the long
march up to the border being cited primarily as the reason for the English
defeat.
