Archaeologists working at the site of the world’s most northerly Roman fort may have found the remains of a key location in Scottish history. The team at Stracathro believe they may have discovered the church where John Balliol abdicated his throne to Edward I in 1296. Medieval ruins were found near a roman fort on the Gask Frontier in Angus. Balliol’s ceremonial disrobing has been described as one of the saddest hours in Scottish history.
