[edit] date of battle

I am not an expert, but in everything I have read, this battle is supposed to have taken place on June 3, 1665, not June 13, 1665. Please advise. 82.227.118.211 11:03, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

It was on 13 June according to the present Gregorian calender (New Style), 3 June according to the Julian calender the English then still used.--MWAK 12:33, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
