As William was waiting to invade from Normandy, Harald Hardrada and Tostig, (King Harolds' brother), invaded on the northeast coast, attacked York and beat a locally raised army.

After the Norse army were beaten, word came of the expected invasion from Normandy, so Harold had to ride south with his bodyguard and pick up another army to fight William near Hastings.
