If you love Scottish history and planning a trip to the Highlands, then consider adding the Culloden Battlefield to your itinerary. Just outside the city of Inverness, this was the place where the 1745 Jacobite Rising came to a halt. The government army of the Duke of Cumberland engaged in a bloody battle that saw the deaths of around 1500 Jacobite soldiers – who were seeking to restore the Stuart monarchy to the British throne.
