The Battle of Arbroath was fought on Sunday, 24 January 1446 at Arbroath in Scotland between rival claimants to the post of Baillie of the Regality. While the Auchinleck Chronicle recorded that in "The yer of God M.CCCC.XLV, the xxiii. day of Jannar 1445 [the year of God, 1445, the 12th day of January], the Eril of Huntlie, and Ogilbeis with him, on the ta part, and the Eril of Craufurd on the tother part, met at the yettis of Arbroth on ane Sonday laite, and faucht", the new year was not designated as 1446 on the calendar in Britain until March 25, 1446. January 1 to March 24 were a continuation of 1445, which had started in Britain on March 25, 1445.
