EDITORS COMMENTS
September 1066: The Norman Conquest, Chapter 16 - Weapons and Wine Loaded, Invasion Fleet Crosses the Channel, Landing at Pevensey This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the Norman Conquest of England, as the invasion fleet, laden with weapons and supplies, prepares to cross the English Channel. The year is 1066, and the soldiers, clad in armor and armed with swords, shields, and bows, are seen boarding their ships. The fleet, which includes longships and other vessels, is ready to set sail, with the white cliffs of Normandy in the background. As the invasion fleet makes its way across the Channel, the soldiers would have been kept busy, ensuring their weapons and supplies were securely stowed away. Wine, an essential commodity for both sustenance and morale, was also loaded onto the ships, as evidenced by the barrels seen in this photograph. Upon reaching the English shore, the Norman soldiers disembarked at Pevensey, a small town in Sussex. They were met with resistance from the English forces, but the Normans, led by Duke William of Normandy, were determined to claim the English throne. This invasion marked the beginning of the Norman Conquest of England, which would last for several years and fundamentally change the course of English history. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of great historical significance. The Norman Conquest remains a captivating chapter in the annals of history, and this image serves as a powerful reminder of the events that shaped the English nation as we know it today.
