OK. Here's my question.

Which was the last pitched battle between opposing armies on English soil?

I want to say Hastings, but I know that's not it.

It's not no. But another good guess. Way later than that.

We are not, sadly. We're about a century later. It was a rebellion. James II against the Duke of Monmouth.

Good guess but no. That was all over by 1649. This is later still. It was one battle.

The last pitched battle ever to take place on English soil was on Sedgemoor in Somerset on the 6th of July 1685. Monmouth tried to beat the King and his government, but was defeated. Don't know the name of the battle but found this little bit on the net ph34r.gif
