Harold put his troops at Senlac Hill, which is near Hastings in East Sussex, England. He positioned them in a strong defensive formation, utilizing the hill's elevation to his advantage. The troops were arranged in a shield wall to withstand the advancing Norman forces led by William the Conqueror during The Battle of Hastings in 1066.

Did Harold hardrada kill Harold godwinson?

Harold Godwinson was killed rather by the more popular suggestion of an arrow to his eye in the battle of Hastings, or getting struck down off his horse in the battle of Hastings. Harold Hardrada was killed by Harold's troops at Stamford bridge, believed to have been shot in the neck then attacked by a group of English troops. He was a very tough man so this was probably necessary.


Who had more troops William or Harold?

It is thought that William had 3000 cavalry, 1000 archers and the rest infantry.
