Order of battle at Culloden, 1746 (Culloden Moor, Highland Region, Scotland, UK) 57°28'00"N 04°05'00"W

An order of battle of the Jacobite army at the Battle of Culloden, 16 April 1746. Jacobite Rebellion (1745-6).

This is the only order of battle for the rebel army in the collection. The tentative attribution to Sandby is made on the basis of stylistic similarity. The pencilled annotations ‘clanranald’ appears to be in Schultz's hand.
