The siege of Caerlaverock in 1300 is uniquely documented by the Anglo-Norman poem 'Le Siege de Karlaverock' — a heraldic roll describing the armorial bearings of the nearly 90 knights who participated. The triangular moated castle, one of the most distinctive in Scotland, fell after a two-day assault. Edward gave the garrison honourable terms. The poem provides one of the most detailed pictures of medieval Scottish castle warfare.
