Battle of Glendale (Skye)
The MacDonalds proceeded to lay waste to the lands of Minginish, Bracadale, and Duirinish, and their forces got right up to the gates of Dunvegan Castle.[2] The manuscript relates that the combined MacLeod forces drew up on the brow of a hill, with a river in front of them which made it difficult for the MacDonalds to attack.Disheartened by the ill-omened music and the loss of their leader, the MacDonalds broke and fled, disregarding attempts by the Clanranald chief to rally them.Roberts proposed that MacDonalds could have landed on the northwest coast of Skye, following Alasdair Crotach's seizure of Dunscaith Castle after the year 1513, and that the opposing forces could have met and done battle at Glendale.Allan of Moidart was to have fought in single combat with the Murdo MacCaskill, and three of his brothers, and slew them all, before retreating with the rest of the MacDonalds to their galleys at Loch Enyort.
