FACT OF THE DAY   PHOTO

The Battle of Stamford Bridge occurred today in 1066. Fought by the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings, it is important for two reasons. One, it signalled the beginning of the end to Viking influence in England and it was fought only a few days before the vital Battle of Hastings where King Harold was defeated by the Norman King William.
