Propositions on Scottish Army Movements Near Hartlepool Durham
Reports from 14 instant letters to Parliament outline the retreat of the Earl of Newcastle's forces from Hilton toward Durham. The Scottish Army, taking quarters between Hartlepool and Durham, moved to Qua rendon Hill near Durham then pursued, while Newcastle sent troops from Newcastle and Lumley Castle to Tees to oppose them. The pursuit aimed to strike before Fairfax's victory at Selby could reshape the field, with Durham left to the Scots as the main theater.
