Life in the UK Test 34
After Oliver Cromwell defeated the Scottish army in the Battles of Dunbar and Worcester, Charles II escaped from Worcester, famously hiding in an oak tree on one occasion, and eventually fled to Europe.
Correct Answer: True
True. After Oliver Cromwell defeated the Scottish army at the Battles of Dunbar (1650) and Worcester (1651), Charles II was forced to flee. During his escape from Worcester, he famously hid in an oak tree at Boscobel House in Shropshire to avoid Parliamentarian soldiers searching for him.
He subsequently made his way to France and lived in exile in Europe until the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1660, when he returned to England as King.
