1746 military event in Scotland

Jacobite victory in Scotland

The siege of Inverness took place in February 1746 and was part of the Jacobite rising of 1745. Supporters of Prince Charles Edward Stuart laid siege to Old Fort George, a medieval castle that had been garrisoned by Crown forces. After three days of fighting, the fort was surrendered after the attackers threatened to blow up the old castle by tunnelling under its walls.
