The area occupied by Normans Bay was under water at the time. The forces of William the Conqueror are believed to have landed at nearby Pevensey although there has been some dispute about this. Normans Bay is near the popular seaside resorts of Eastbourne and Brighton to the west and Bexhill on Sea to the east, with a regular train service on the hour during the day not Sundays . It is served by Normans Bay railway station . The nearest bus service is in Pevensey Bay . Some points of interest include a sand and shingle beach, a Napoleonic defence tower, two caravan sites and a large Inn. The main village is surrounded by mostly dry marshland to the North, in which lay the land remains of an ancient settlement known as Northolt, which is thought to have gradually been abandoned when the sea retreated though there is some speculation about this .

Senlac Hill also known as Senlac Ridge , was the ridge on which Harold Godwinson deployed his army for the Battle of Hastings on October 14, 1066. The high ground the hill offered gave the English a great advantage over the Normans, who made repeated charges up the hill but to no avail. Only when the Normans feigned retreat did the English leave the hill to pursue the Normans. Once the English were on flat ground the Normans made their stand, soon Harold was killed in battle and the English became disorganized allowing the Normans to win the battle. ref cite book last Baugh first Albert coauthors Thomas Cable title A History of the English Language origyear 1951 edition 5th date 2006 publisher Routledge location Oxon, England isbn 0 415 28099 0 page 111 ref Etymology It was originally known in English as Santlache Sandy Stream , which the Normans punned into Sanguelac Blood Lake which was then shortened to Senlac thus Senlac Hill is the commonly held name for the high ground defended by the English army.

Pope Gregory VII was besieged in the Castel Sant Angelo by the Emperor Henry IV in June 1083 . He held out and called for aid from the Guiscard, who was then fighting the Byzantine Emperor Alexius I Comnenus in the Balkans . He returned, however, to Italy and marched north with 36,000 men. He entered Rome and forced Henry to retire, but a riot of the citizens led to a three days sack, after which Guiscard escorted the pope to the Lateran . The Normans had mainly pillaged the old city, which was then one of the richest cities in Italy. After days of unending violence, the Romans rose up causing the Normans to set fire to the city. Many of the buildings of Rome were gutted on the Capitol and Palatine hills along with the area between the Colosseum and the Lateran. In the end the ravaged Roman populace succumbed to the Normans.
