I saw the Bayeux Tapestry depicting the battle snd Harold's death. it's an amazing *story* in pictures!

I can see the remains of the castle from where I live in Hastings . The Battle of Hastings was actually fought about 5 miles north of Hastings at what is now known as Battle .

1066 seems to be the one battle date most easily remembered by British people for some reason!

lostiaz, I knew the answer, and I didn't even take history at school, but I do have a mum who is brilliant at all historical facts, ,(I think), well she'd have been ashamed of me if I'd have got it wrong

If my memory serves me correctly “1066 and all that “ is a comic view of history.

I have an English history book called "1066 and All That" which I picked up in London.
