Where did William set up a castle and wait for king Harold?

Harold Godwinson had spent the summer waiting on the South Coast for Duke William of Normandy to attack! after a while he returned to London because there was no sign of William, but when he returned he was shocked to hear that Harald Hardrada had attacked Yorkshire with Harolds younger brother, Tostig Godwinson. so Harold marched his army 2000 miles to attack the Norman army (thats 40 miles a day) Amazingly his army made it there in 5 days and the Normans were NOT prepared for them! :) Hope this helps
