IIRC the English army had to hump it around 220 miles from Stamford Bridge to Hastings. I believe——guess-——that the bridge was the site of an old Roman structure.

I have long wondered what the heck happened to all the leftover Norse ships that they could not man any more. Have never seen anyone address that.

Kind of weird that Harald and Harold were both slain by archers.

Wow, I had no idea Chelsea FC's stadium was so old.
