Jacobite and Hanoverian weapons and military tactics at Culloden
In this clip, members of the Alba Adventure Company explain how they are able to recreate the Jacobite experience at the time of the 1745 Rising, demonstrating the weapons and fighting techniques that helped them defeat the Redcoats until the Battle of Culloden. The Redcoats won at Culloden because they were better led and trained in a new fighting drill by their leader Cumberland. After the battle, Jacobite survivors were massacred to ensure the Rising was brought to an end.
