Battle Battle No Data

Description


Battle, a town built around an historical event. The Abbey was built shortly after the Norman Conquest to pay homage to King Harold who died on the spot following the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Today a bustling town has built up around the ruins of the Abbey, though the only real sights are the ruins and the battlefield itself
