What is recorded here

The Battle of Carberry Hill took place on 15 June 1567, near Carberry Tower in East Lothian, a few miles east of Edinburgh, Scotland. A number of Scottish lords objected to the rule of Mary, Queen of Scots, after she married Earl of Bothwell, who was widely believed to have murdered her previous husband Lord Darnley.
