Cockleroy Hoodie

Taken from the top of Linlithgow Palace, in the town of Linlithgow, West Lothian, Scotland. Looking over the town to Cockleroy Hill which sits above the town. Originally named Cuckold le Roi after the alleged infidelity of one of the Scottish Queens, Cockleroy has a dip on its summit, the site of a heavily eroded Bronze Age fort named Wallace's Cradle or Wallace's Bed, associated in local lore with the 13th Century Scottish military hero, who allegedly used it to reconnoitre Edward I's encampment at Burgh Muir near Linlithgow prior to the Battle of Falkirk. An alternative story places Wallace at Drumshoreland Muir near the eighteenth century Wallace Stone, a few miles to the east.
