Harold ii (Harold Godwinson) the last Anglo-Saxon King of England, claimed that he had been promised the throne by his predecessor, Edward the Confessor. However, William, Duke of Normandy, made the same claim and was incensed when Harold took the throne. He amassed an army and invaded England in October 1066. Harold and William's armies fought a decisive battle at Senlac Hill (near the town of Hastings) on 14th October where Harold was mortally wounded. William was then crowned King of England and became known as William the Conqueror.
