Torn away from their homes and families due to the sudden and devastating ‘harrying of the North’ by William the Conqueror’s soldiers, teenage friends Hravn and Ealdgith are forced to flee through the Yorkshire Dales in the bitter winter of 1070.
Theirs is a tale of harsh survival and rapid change from childhood to adulthood under the constant threat of discovery, slavery or death at the hands of the Norman invaders or vicious bandits.
Set in the Northern Dales and Cumbria, The Year 1070 weaves a tale around historical fact and real places, bringing to life the diverse people of the North and the challenges they faced at a time of rebellion, repression and great social upheaval.
‘The Year 1070 – Survival’ is a glimpse into life in an often forgotten moment at the time of one of the greatest social upheavals England has ever faced; it is a tale that will be continued.
