After he had his forces and ships ready for the invasion, it took from early August to late September 1066 before he could sail, because of adverse winds. When the winds turned, he crossed in a few days. After landing it took a little over three weeks before he had defeated king Harold.

William the Conqueror (born around 1028 AD) ruled England from Christmas Day 1066 AD to 1087 AD, when he died. The previous king, Harold Godwinson, was defeated and killed at The Battle of Hastings on October 14, 1066. As king, William led armies from Normandy to consolidate his reign and build several castles in 1068, but in the years after 1075 he spent little if any time physically in England.
