Good evening! Thank you so much for helping the channel to over 8,600 subscribers - today we're coming to the end of our trio of walks around towns associated with the epic Battle of Hastings! On the week of the battle's 955th anniversary, we visit the actual town of Hastings, which is about 8 miles away from the actual battlefield. Located by the sea, we mentioned how Hastings' enormous shingle beach led to the downfall of its once-great port, but because of the size of its beach, the town is now home to the largest beach-based fishing fleet in Europe!

You have got me thinking, I posted about visiting Battle Abbey on your previous walk and am wondering if we visited Hastings on the same day which would have been logical. We were staying in Eastbourne in 1988 and visited Hastings for the 400th. Anniversary of the Spanish Armada, we watched a far from inspiring set of boats enacting this from the pier as well as fireworks which were a little better. When we arrived we parked before the pier and walked along the prom to the net huts and got the West Hill Lift to the large green field. We then walked back to the pier for the celebrations when it was dark, we didn’t actually stray from the prom to visit the town so your walk vas very informative.

Wow! That sounds like quite the event - I've never heard of them doing a re-enactment of the Armada off Hastings, though as you say it would be difficult to get the same scale in the modern day! But as you mention, there are lots of amazing places around Hastings to see and you can still miss out on some of the town's best sights - I'm sure you had a wonderful time when you were up on the West Hill and down by the promenade, and indeed it would have made sense to have popped up to Battle on the same day you were in Hastings :) Thank you so much for watching and your wonderful comments as always - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!

To see where the actual battle of Hastings was fought and to see where Harold fell you'll have to go to crowhurst Abbey, it didn't happen in battle, in fact battle Abbey was built just after crowhurst Abbey was nearly finished because the monks wanted a much larger grander Abbey on the London trade Rd completely tax free. It also protects the actual site, which isn't a bad thing tbh.

It did not happen in Crowhurst or battle . It started in ore , that's why the Norman's started doing the old church of ore before they decided they needed something better. The say it happened by the hore apple tree at senlac, remember it was French people writing this . The hore apple tree is the Ore apple tree and senlac means lake of blood whitch is the red lake area of ore . They say they marched 7 miles along the London road from where they was camped to where they heard Harold was camped . If you walk from there camp along the seafront and up the London road fpr 7 miles you end up at Ore church. They built houses all around the church in the 80s and found the remains of thousands of ancient bodies there but still built houes there anyway . I don't think any one made the connection. There are loads more facts that say it started here but I am to tired to write them down as its 4am. I think yhe reason I think Harold headed for yhere was because he knew it was a holy place what with the fresh water spring which is there and still flows to day . Its called the holy well at the to of St Helens Wood. They stopped using that church in 1853 and built a new one next to the Road about 100 yards down the road and you can go see the ruins of the old one . There are even KZfaq videos on it . It's called St Helens church or local people call it the old church of ore . Plus that battle would of went on for miles with that many people on each side . And not one field like people say . Once the men under Harold knew they was losing yhey would of run in all directions and for miles . Plus the man who says it happened in Crowhurst has not one body or a single bit of proof that it happened there .he comes out with rubbish that he knows the body's are there etc and all that happens is he can't find nothing at all .

@@danjames5552 very interesting, I've done quite a bit of research myself, find the subject fascinating, but by what you've said I get the feeling William landed virtually at crowhurst as the bulverhythe was sea inlet back then, crowhurst to ore is literally 7 miles along the old road, the bulverhythe to ore along the seafront and up old London Rd is about 4 & 1/2 miles. I can definitely see a link between ore & crowhurst somewhere. Logistically in battle terms you would find a high point, to fight going uphill would be at a disadvantage but for William to land at crowhurst and go across the ridge would make more sense to approach Harold's camp at the highest point, ore. Its just another theory but makes more sense to me in logistical terms. Also William landing at crowhurst would enable him to cut off the London Rd stopping any supplies etc etc reaching Harold.

@@martineleven8179 but it is written that he marched along seafront and up along the ridge on the London road (now the old London road ) and there was only one road in them days and that was it .

Even the primary school is called red lake school . The water in the stream there runs a orange colour even to this day . Go up the side of ore community centre and look at the stream that runs along side the path . Bright orange. Plus why woukd the Norman's start to build the old church of ore. That was the building that William built in memory of his fallen men . Then they decided to build a better one and that's where battle Abbey comes in to it . Harold would of known this site as it was holy because of the St Helens water spring that still runs to this day . Plus when the y was building the houses that are around the old church of ore they found the remains of thousands of people . Whitch could not of been from the grave yard because in 300 years from the 1600s onward there was only 90 people buried there. The graves are still there now for that lot .

@@danjames5552 I'm not disagreeing with what your saying whatsoever, in my opinion William probably approached Harold from different flanks, one coming from crowhurst the other coming from the way you mention, it's all the same Rd, it would have hemmed Harold in. In battle terms it just makes more sense to me, it definitely didn't happen in battle on the field at the Abbey, if you study the place only a raving lunatic would go into war there, its too open flanked, but I can understand the red lake ore scenario, I keep an open mind on the subject tbh as there's so much still to learn .

@@martineleven8179 you can't land at Crowhurst. It's to far inland and yhere was only one road and that was London road .

Plus it is written he marched up along the ridge on ghe London road . He would not of spilt his forces in two and to the best of my knowledge he never did . There was one road in them days and from where he was camped to that ore church is about 7 miles , I just did it on maps again just to make sure . Take it from where they say he was camped and go along yhe seafront whitch is the only way to the old London and march ghe 7 miles and you end up where I think it happened.
