NORMAN CONQUESTS - THE HARRYING OF THE NORTH

The aftermath of 1066. In newly conquered England, the years which followed the Battle of Hastings were marked by violent turmoil. King William eventually responded to the constant uprisings of the Anglo-Saxon people by laying waste to the north of England. It was a brutal period of English history, which saw the introduction of feudalism, a proliferation of Norman churches and castles, and the completion of the remarkable Doomsday Book. Authentic re-enactments, dramatised contemporary accounts, period imagery and expert analysis from Doctor Matthew Strickland (University of Glasgow) give an in-depth understanding of these dark times.
