That depends on which tapestry. I'm going to guess you're asking about the Bayeux Tapestry, which depicts The Battle of Hastings in 1066.

How many troops did William Godwinson have at the Battle of Hastings?
it is not William godwinson it is William duke of Normandy so i f say the question right then you may get an answer!!! (i did not type the answer above) actually Harold Godwinson was the ruler of England in the time before the battle of Hastings. at the battle of Hastings he was shot in the eye, William took over. end of story. forget both answers above William had around 8,000 troops and so did Harold Harold had thegens fryd and foot soldiers and William had archers and knights :) No he had about 5,000 troops
Why did William choose Hastings?
He didn't and Hastings played no part in the battle. The Saxon King Harold arranged for his army to gather at the "hoar (grey and old) apple tree", a familiar landmark that the men would have known, sited on a ridge which would give the English a defensive high ground position. This was at the place now called Battle, not at Hastings. This ridge at Battle was a very strong position with marshes and ditches in front and around it, commanding the main route from Hastings to London - the route that William had to take. Given sufficient troops, Harold could have held the position indefinitely and William would have lost.
