The House of Stuart was restored to the throne OTD in 1660.

In today's #dukesandprinces adventure, Drummond Castle, home of the Dukes of Perth (well, Jacobite dukes anyway).

Came across a visceral account o/t aftermath of Prestonpans I've not seen referenced. British trooper George Cranston took refuge in a gravedigger's house & was told of Jacobite dead lying in the church w/ fine linen & plaids over their bodies, w/ Highlanders 'howling over ym'.

Huge congratulations to Nicola on the publication of her new book 🥳

King James VI & I, the first monarch to rule over all of the British Isles, was born on this day in 1566. This gold £20 piece that was minted in Edinburgh in 1575 is the earliest coin to depict him. From the Hunterian collection.

This silver touchpiece was personally distributed by Bonnie Prince Charlie when touching for the King's Evil sometime between 1766 and 1788. During the ceremony, Charles would've hung this small medal around a scrofula sufferer's neck. From the Hunterian.
