The Norman force

Duke William's force was made up of:

Knights on Horseback

Archers

Mercenaries

 

The organisation of all Duke William's forces was difficult.  Everything had to be carefully organised so the trip across the Channel could be safe.

Bad weather forced the invasion force to wait, and eventually set sail on 27th September.

Duke William's force made the dangerous journey across the channel, and are said to have landed at Pevensey.  Yet perhaps they didn't land there!
