This set of hand decorated chess pieces represents the two opposing armies in the most famous battle ever fought on English soil. Harold, the English King, leads his Saxon forces against the invading William, Duke of Normandy.
The Battle of Hastings altered the course of English history from 1066 onwards. Marvel at the amazing sculptural detail so richly displayed in this historic theme chess set.
It is based on the famous Battle of Hastings in which King Harold II of England opposed the invading Norman army led by William Duke of Normandy on October 14th 1066.
After the hard fought battle of Stamford Bridge in which he defeated and killed Harold Hardrada King of Norway who had invaded Northumbria, Harold and his Saxon Army marched from York to the south coast of England.
At a small village just inland from Hastings, Harold's tired army met the invading forces of William Duke of Normandy.
