The Normans invaded England in 1066. The attack was led by William, Duke Of Normandy, in France. This was because he felt he deserved the crown more than Harold Godwineson, the current king. William claimed that the previous king, Edward the Confessor, named William as his successor when he visited England in 1051. He was enraged to find that Harold Godwineson got the crown instead of him. He ordered his men to build an invasion fleet to attack. When the fleet was ready, they set sail. They later landed in England a few weeks later and attacked the next day. This battle took place on Senlac Hill, near the peaceful village of Hasting. This battle was known as the Battle Of Hasting and was one of the most famous battles in history. William won the battle for his army was much greater and stronger than Harold's army. Harold died after receiving and arrow in the eye during a deadly rain of arrows.
