The Battle of Marston Moor, which took place on July 2, 1644, was the largest battle of the English Civil War, and one of the most decisive.
The Allied armies abandoned the siege and concentrated at Marston Moor, on the flank of Rupert's expected direct march to York (along Ermine Street, the modern A59).
On July 2, the Allied armies were already marching south from Marston Moor when their rearguard reported that the Royalists were advancing onto the moor.
