Scotland History Tours is here for people who want to learn about Scottish history and get ideas for Scottish history tours. I try to make videos which tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history and historical places to visit in Scotland. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. Basically the people who made Scotland. From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
As a Scottish history tour guide people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation if your from the US. So I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

Though it's probable that disease to some extent opened up the land to invaders. Plague is believed to have come from the southwest i.e. the Roman Empire, with the invaders coming from the east and much less severely hit by it. The early warrior invaders would have been short of women. Servants, serfs and slaves are valuable assets. Also taking children to raise as part of your own tribal group helps too more quickly replace the inevitable casualties. I'd say large numbers of surviving Britons stayed put. They were subsumed into the new dominant culture as most American Natives are today outside of the reservations. Further south from an Angle, Saxon and Jute perspective Scotland, Wales and Cornwall would be the equivalent of reservations (no pejorative meant they represent the limit of the power of the invaders). Celtic strongholds also existed in the English Peak and Lake Districts for awhile. When the Norse came to England they being of such a close linguistic and cultural group in large areas must simply have became, Norman like, overlords and did much less displacement of populations. Once again locally becoming the dominant culture and able to control such things as place names but eventually subsumed like the were Normans in their turn into what was to become English culture as must the Angles in Scotland have been into Scottish culture. But all groups will have left their contribution to some aspect of future culture. So the Scots (not Gaelic that's Irish) language probably has foundations that predate Modern English and is influenced by Modern English rather than being a dialect of Modern English

Nearly spat my dinner out, when asked about Scottish Independence, as I have advocated for years the sooner England gets its independence the better, and we would most definitely hang on to Eire/Ireland. I love your capacity to articulate the dynamics of history. There are so many things that happen, with their own time lines to create any one scenario in all stories, and in particular how history is or has been generally taught. Your dissecting and weaving of these different stories into a relatable historical period, reminds me of Tolstoy......but with a guid sense of humour. Another A+ on the report card Bruce.

As a Geordie enjoyed that video, Northumberland is a fantastic place, if you love castles, history etc then it's your place. Oh and we have some of the best beaches in the UK, we just haven't got the weather 😂😂😂. Great video cheers mate.

St. Andrews has got one of the best beaches in Europe, it's just 1000 miles too far north and faces the wrong direction. Who wants to sunbathe facing Norway when you can go to Spain and face Africa?

After binging "Last Kingdom" on Netflix, this 5 video series was super interesting and enlightening. Thank you. So many new facets. So Uthred of Bamburgh, the hot-head, was a real thing....

Good stuff, as usual. I have just returned from a 3+ weeks stay on the Northumberland coast (5miles south of Bamburgh) which included another visit to Lindisfarne as well as trips to Alnwick + Warkworth Castles. Great part of the country. I was almost sure I saw my wife walking behind you in the video but, no, it wasn't...!

Excellent stuff again. Good history, one that tells it with all the nuance and complexity, is so important in this post-truth age of re-invented nationalisms of whatever hue. And you do it so well. You’re a natural presenter. Now I’m off to watch your video on the Picts. PS liked that walking programme on the BBC the other week.
