Battle of Ronaldsway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Battle of Ronaldsway took place in 1275 at Ronaldsway on the Isle of Man between a Scottish army and the Manx. The battle crushed a final attempt by the Manx to reestablish the Norse Sudreyar dynasty. As the battle resulted in the death of the last Norse King of Man, Godfred Magnuson, and the emigration to Norway of the remaining members of the Manx royal family it also led to the firm establishment of Scottish rule on the Isle of Man.
