After The Battle of Hastings in October 1066, William decided against marching directly north into London. Instead, he headed west and crossed the River Thames at Wallingford. He was met at Berkhamsted Castle by a delegation of Saxon nobles who surrendered to him in November 1066. William was then able to enter London unopposed and was crowned king on Christmas Day 1066.
