Bannock Burn
The Bannock Burn (Scottish Gaelic: Allt a' Bhonnaich) is a stream (burn is Scots for stream) which rises at about 1,300 feet (400 m) on Touchadam Moor, NS715891, just to the north of Earl's Hill in the Touch Hills to the south-west of Stirling in central Scotland. The Bannock flows eastward and enters the River Forth to the east of Stirling, close to the site of the Battle of Bannockburn (1314), about 7.58 miles (12.20 km) from its source. The burn itself meanders and is considerably longer. A nearby town, nowadays a suburb of Stirling, is accordingly called Bannockburn.
The Battle of Sauchieburn (1488) was also fought close to the Bannock Burn.
The Bannock Burn marks a significant point on the Clyde–Forth isthmus — hence the battle muster cry from beyond Bannauc. In Sub-Roman Britain the isthmus defined the boundary between the Picts of Caledonia to the north, the Celtic Britons of the Hen Ogledd (Old North) to the south, and the Gododdin to the northeast.
