Despite the Battle of Flodden taking place more than 500 years ago, there is a small, modern-day army dedicated to making sure that it is never forgotten.

Members of the Coldstream-based Flodden 1513 Club and their guests travelled to the Branxton monument last week to pay tribute to the Scots who fell in great numbers at the battle between England and Scotland on September 9, 1513.

A piper led the way, followed by standard bearers and a poignant ceremony was conducted, with wreaths and thistle sprigs laid and toasts made to James IV and those who fell.
