William the Conqueror confronted Hereward the Wake, a leader of resistance against Norman rule in England, during the late 11th century. Hereward and his followers staged a rebellion, notably at Ely, where they used the marshy landscape to their advantage. William attempted to subdue Hereward, ultimately laying siege to Ely, which led to the defeat of Hereward's forces. While Hereward initially escaped, his resistance symbolized the broader struggle against Norman conquest.
