The Flodden Wall in Edinburgh was built primarily by women, children, and the elderly, because most able-bodied men died at the Battle of Flodden (1513), leaving a shortage for defense against feared English invasion.

Did you know that parts of Edinburgh's old city wall still stand today? It's called the Flodden Wall. It was built after the Battle of Flodden in 1513 to protect the city from the English.

So, as leaders who fear outsiders tend to do, they decided to build a wall to defend their domain. The 24-foot-tall wall encased a 140-acre area. About 10,000 people lived within its confin
