though not strictly battles there was some action on English soil during th second jacobean revolt- charles stewart the young pretender. Whilst the decisive battles took place in Scotland, Charles marched south in 1745, captured Carlisle after a five day siege and got as far south as Derby before turning back, there was a rearguard action on the way back up in 1746 near Penrith and a counter siege by the English forces to recapture Carlisle.
