Which forgotten British battle deserves more space in the history books?

Days before Hastings, Harold Godwinson crushed a Norwegian invasion in Yorkshire. History remembers his loss, not his triumph that ended the Viking Age in England.

An estimated 28,000 died in a snowstorm during the Wars of the Roses, making it arguably the deadliest battle ever fought on English soil. Yet most Brits couldn't place it on a map.

The last pitched battle on British soil crushed the Jacobite rising and reshaped Scotland forever. Its scars still echo through Highland identity today.

Ealdorman Byrhtnoth's noble stand against Viking raiders ended in defeat and inspired one of the finest Old English poems. Chivalry, arguably, cost him everything.

William of Orange's victory over James II decided the crown and still divides communities in Northern Ireland. Few battles remain this politically alive.
