The Milites line up for battle |
Serjeant Riculf pointing the way… |
…for the officer with the map… |
The archers – our Norman warm-up act |
Parley between William and Harold |
|
Taillefer rides for single combat |
and defeats the Saxon Huscarl |
Enjoying the Norman cheers |
but is set upon by Saxon peasants! |
And dragged to a dishonourable death |
|
The Milites take the right flank |
Riculf, Viscount Adam and Alain |
Count Guy goes into the fray |
The deBec banner flying over the battle |
The armoured knights and men-at-arms |
|
The Norman cavalry slash the Saxon shieldwall |
Sir Jean-Pierre d’Abascy leading the charge |
Sir Roger de Clare plotting mayhem with his big mace |
The mail must get through! |
The Count and Viscount directing the battle |
