1870: Sheep in the King's Stables' is a ruined thatched cottage which lies in a depression called Stable Hollow, about a mile west of Culloden Battlefield, near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. It is reputed to have housed the King's cavalry after the Battle of Culloden, the last pitched battle fought on British soil. It was fought on 16 April 1746 and saw the Jacobite army of Prince Charles Edward Stuart defeated by the army of the Hanoverian King George II under the leadership of the Duke of Cumberland.
