James continued the mediaeval tradition of kings leading in person, whether in military manoeuvres or dispensing justice. Whilst he spent the majority of his reign in the south of Scotland, he made expeditions to the Highlands, to the Isle of Man, and to France. He refused, however, to risk a visit over the border to England.
