WHAT THE NORMANS DID NEXT AFTER 1066
Cinemavixion Review
Dan Jones returns with another insightful exploration, this time delving into the multifaceted aftermath of the Norman Conquest of 1066. His journey along the Monnow river system vividly illustrates the challenges the Normans faced in consolidating their power, particularly in the volatile Welsh Marches. Jones masterfully connects the imposing motte and bailey castles, symbols of baronial ambition, to the ongoing shaping of the landscape and its agricultural practices. The narrative extends beyond military might, highlighting the enduring legacy of Norman influence on land ownership, with a fascinating glimpse into a family whose tenure stretches back nearly a millennium. This documentary offers a compelling perspective on how conquest continues to resonate through the fabric of a nation's history and geography.
