We often think of 1066 as a big turning point in English history, but it actually took another six years for the Norman Conquest to take hold.\nJoining us to talk through William the Conqueror\u2019s coronation and the measures he took to assert his authority are Senior Properties Curator Roy Porter and Curator of Collections and Interiors for the South East, Kathryn Bedford.\nTo learn more about the Norman Conquest, go to www.english-heritage.org.uk/learn/histories/1066-and-the-norman-conquest\nLearn more about your ad choices.
