The entry of the Scots into the English Civil War (1642–1651) on 19January 1644 on the side of Parliament radically changed the balance ofpower in the North of England. The Royalists in the North were forcedonto the defensive and besieged in York. In a bold march, Prince Rupertoutmanoeuvred his enemies and relieved York without a shot being fired.However, when Rupert met the allied army in battle on Marston Moor on 2July, his cavalry was defeated by Cromwell's Ironsides who then turnedon the Royalist infantry. The result was a hard-fought but catastrophicdefeat; the Royalist army was crushed and their forces driven from thenorth of England.
