Norman Conquest | The Fall of Anglo-Saxon England | Ancient to Recent | Episode 19

As the smoke of Hastings clears, William the Conqueror’s work has only just begun. From the burning towns of Sussex to the frozen wastes of Northumbria, England descends into chaos. The Godwinsons rise from exile to challenge the Norman invader, rebellions erupt from Devon to York, and the Vikings return one last time to stake their claim.But William answers rebellion with terror, slaughter, famine, and fire in a campaign so brutal it will be remembered as the Harrying of the North. This is the dark aftermath of 1066, when England’s old world died, and a new one was born in blood. 🎧 New episodes every Friday at 8 PM CET📲 Follow on Spotify, YouTube & Instagram @AncientToRecentSponsored by World of Whisky – Some things only get better with age.
