Horse, Foot and Artillery

Join the team at Culloden Battlefield for a presentation on the soldiers that fought at the Battle of Culloden and throughout the 1745 Jacobite campaign.

Each Sunday will delve into a different aspect of soldiers with the first session on the 15th of March - The Horse: Cavalry Hussar and Dragoons. All presentations will cover the soldiers from both sides and how the shifting tactics, equipment and doctrine changed the ways these soldiers would fight.

The Horse: Cavalry Hussar and Dragoons.

Whats the diference between Cavalry and mounted infantry? Why don't any of these soldiers carry a lance? Did the Jacobites ride Shetland Ponies?

All these questions and more will be investigated in the first part of our Horse Foot and Artilery series.
