Join us at Pevensey Castle for '1066: Why does it matter?'. This talk will be ran by historian and author, Marc Morris, author of The Norman Conquest, and presenter of Channel 4's Castle.
1066 is the most famous date in English history. Everyone remembers the story, depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry, of William the Conqueror's successful invasion, and King Harold being felled by an arrow in the eye. But why do we remember 1066 above all other dates, and why do the events of that year matter so much?
