Which battle in 1066 ended Anglo-Saxon rule in England?

The Battle of Hastings in 1066 ended Anglo-Saxon rule in England.

The battle was fought on 14 October 1066 between the English army of King Harold Godwinson and the invading Norman forces of William, Duke of Normandy. William’s army won after a long engagement near Hastings in southern England. Harold was killed, traditionally said to have been struck in the eye by an arrow, although the Bayeux Tapestry’s evidence is debated.

William was crowned King of England on Christmas Day 1066, beginning the Norman Conquest. The battle followed Harold’s victory over a Norwegian invasion at Stamford Bridge in Yorkshire, fought only weeks earlier. The conquest reshaped England’s aristocracy, castles, administration, and language; thousands of French-derived words later entered English. The Bayeux Tapestry, created soon afterward, is the best-known visual account of the campaign.
