Join the Friends of the Vale & Downland Museum and speaker Julie Ann Godson for another fascinating talk
1066: Oxfordshire and the Roman Conquest - a light-hearted romp
Many of the key events surrounding the Norman invasion of Anglo-Saxon England in 1066 took place in modern Oxfordshire. Enjoy a richly-illustrated romp through an event which changed the country forever. From the birth of a prince to the formal surrender after the Battle of Hastings, Oxfordshire frequently provided the background for the board-room take-over that was the Norman Conquest of England.
