Martyr's Monument, Rullion Green
The monument commemorates those Covenanters (Presbyterians who refused to accept interference by the Stuart monarchy in the Church of Scotland) who fell in battle here on 28 November 1666 in a rout by the Government troops, commanded by General Thomas (Tam) Dalyell of the Binns (an ancestor of the 20th Century Labour MP of the same name).
Since this 1969 photo Image, the area around the monument has become more overgrown, but the railings have had a lick of paint recently.

Rullion Green Martyrs' Monument
Here at what is known as the 'Preaching Field' the Battle of Rullion Green took place on the 28th November 1666. An army of around 900 Covenanters commanded by Colonel James Wallace were confronted by a government army of over 3,000 soldiers under General Tam Dalziel of the Binns -'Bloody Tam'. The result was a rout with much slaughter.A service is held here on the anniversary each year. Interestingly Robert Louis Stevenson's first published book when aged 16 was an account of the battle, "The Pentland Rising: a Page of History,1666".
