Delighted to hear @DJMusgrove speaking on @bbc5live with @NickyAACampbell remind people about Edgar Aetheling and the English nobles’ surrender to William Duke of Normandy at Berkhamsted Castle in 1066, as depicted in the Alderney Bayeux Tapestry Finale.

Good to see #berkhamsted castle moats looking healthy these days. The Apr 1931 edition of Country Life reported on clearing work at the site with a photo showing mott and moat, which had become almost wholly silted up. facebook.com/BLHMS/posts/135…

Me and some school chums storming the castle back around 1966. Happy memories from when I lived in Berkhamsted.
