How much do you remember about Britain’s battlefields and the kings who won – and lost – their crowns? For me, the names of the battles and the stories attached to them inspire an ongoing curiosity; I think this is true of many people, if the recent excavation of Richard III’s remains is anything to go by.
I don’t expect you to know all the answers here (I certainly wouldn’t!) but I hope you have fun trying! Don’t forget your hauberk.

Good quiz!! 80% would have been 90 but I changed from Camlann to Badon…… enjoyed that
Oh dear! Well done, anyway!
haha such is life!!!
I should have put the Black Prince’s Ruby!! Arggggh….
Well, I’m glad the other options sounded convincing!
Sounds like you did well, though!
I only knew 3 of the answers and got one more right by chance, so 40%, which is my usual kind of score. I’m happy with that.
That isn’t bad at all! I would have struggled with many of them. I’m surprised the King Arthur one is catching people out (no one has got it right yet!)
