He may look like a neighbourhood ned, but this is the face of a 700-year-old nobleman

When a battle-scarred skeleton was discovered buried beneath one of the nation's most strategically important castles, archaeologists could only guess at the nature of his life and death.

 A reconstruction from a skeleton found at Stirling Castle has revealed the face a soldier thought to be an English medieval knight.

Now, a decade on, a reconstructed face with decidedly thuggish features points to the possible identity of a medieval knight, whose remains were discovered at Stirling Castle.
