Covenanter History: Rullion Green

On November 28, 1666, the Covenanters fought an important battle against the dragoons in a pasture on the outskirts of Edinburgh, Rullion Green. The Covenanters had patiently endured growing persecution for many years until an incident sparked a protest march that grew into an army heading to the capitol to formally petition for relief. They were stopped by government soldiers. #covenanterhistory
