After the Scottish defeat at Pinkie, no Anglo-Scottish battle had occurred until this. Sir John Carmichael assembled a small band of pikemen and gunmen in Liddesdale. He was preparing to meet with Sir John Forster at Carter Bar for truce, being the Lord Warden of the Marches. Sir John Forster gathered an army as well. Forster was known for double-dealing, and Carmichael knew it could turn into a battle.
