A battle fought near Berwick-on-Tweed, on the border between England and Scotland, which saw a major victory for Edward Balliol over the nationalist Scots. Balliol had been crowned King of Scotland in 1332 but subsequently driven out of the kingdom: his victory at Halidon Hill, which was achieved with the help of English archers supplied to him by Edward III, regained him his kingdom—at the price of doing homage for it to the English crown.
