It took place approximately 7 miles (11 kilometers) north-west of Hastings, close to the present-day town of Battle, East Sussex, and was a decisive Norman victory. William I (Williame I; c. 1028 – 09 September 1087), usually known as William the Conqueror and sometimes William the Bastard, was the first Norman King of England, reigning from 1066 until his death in 1087. The descendant of Viking raiders, he had been Duke of Normandy since 1035 under the style William II. After a long struggle to establish his power, by 1060 his hold on Normandy was secure, and he launched the Norman conquest of England in 1066. The rest of his life was marked by struggles to consolidate his hold over England and his continental lands and by difficulties with his eldest son.

Edward VII was nearly sixty years old before he became King. He restored much colour and ceremony to the monarchy and established the tradition of the Sovereign opening Parliament on a regular basis. His political influence and ambassadorial style of monarchy contributed to the Anglo-French Entente Cordiale on 08th April 1904. George V reigned during turbulent times but won the respect of the nation during First World War. The post-war saw industrial unrest and a worldwide economic depression but the celebration of the King's Silver Jubilee in 1935 brought welcome relief during a grave period. It was George V who changed the Royal name to Windsor and who initiated the King's speech at Christmas-time. Edward VIII enjoyed enormous popularity as Prince of Wales but his reign as King was short, abdicating in favour of his brother, Albert George, before he could be crowned. Consequently. although coins bearing his portrait had been prepared, none were ever issued. He was created Duke of Windsor and lived most of his life in France. George VI although unprepared for a heavy demands of Head of State, effectively led the nation during Second World War, promoting national unity and boosting morale with visits to the bomb-blitzed areas of London and the battlefields of Europe. With his wife Queen Elizabeth (known as Queen Mother), he also visited Guernsey when Channel Islands were finally liberated in 1945. Elizabeth II as the head of the one of the few constitutional monarchies in the world, the Queen presides over a nation hugely different from the post-Victorian world into which she was born. She has witnessed a world at war, worked with no fewer than ten Prime Ministers, and watched the transformation of the British Empire into a Commonwealth of independent nations representing over a quarter of the world's population. The present Royal family has visited Guernsey many times.

George III, is third of the Hanoverian monarchs. He was a popular King. He reigned, through, in difficult times: the American colonies gained their independence and the Napoleonic wards raged for twelve yeards before their final end at Waterloo in 1815. A debilitating mental illness became permanent in 1811 and Parliament  enacted the regency of the Prince of Wales, the future George IV. George IV is probably best remembered as a great patron of arts. During his reign the National Gallery was established, Regent Street and Regent's Park were developed, Buckingham Palace was renovated and he sponsored the restoration of Windsor Castle. But his most famous memorial is undoubtedly the exotic Royal Pavilion at Brighton. William IV affectionately known as the "Sailor King" having spent his early life in the navy. William IV was the third son of George III and came to the throne at the age of 64. He sanctioned the Great Reform Bill of 1832 and his reign saw the abolition of slavery throughout the Empire and the introduction of the first state aid for education. His two legitimate daughters died infancy and on his death the crown passed to his niece Victoria. Victoria's reign also known as Victorian era was one of great inventiveness and progress, of great social, political and domestic reform, and of remarkable peace and increasing prosperity. Queen Victoria's dominions had expanded to the four corners of the Earth so that her Empire was one on which, famously, "the sun never set". She was the first British monarch known to visit Guernsey and in her honour a tower was erected on the site of the old L'Hyvreuse windmill and named the Victoria Tower. Hers was the longest reign in British history dominating the nineteenth century and ending in the twentieth. As the Queen herself noted, "for the first time...there should be three direct Heirs as well as the Sovereign alive".
