Hi Chas --
Just a quick note. David Cooke and I had a few discussions concerning the route taken to Stamford Bridge. Here's some food for thought -- although I can't say for certain what route Harald Hardrada took, I have proposed that Eystein Orri's force arrived near Kexby by longboat from Riccall. They disembarked and ran from there to the battlefield. Several passages in the Sagas which previously were anomalous, would then make sense. And I haven't heard any reasonable argument against this explanation (at least not yet).
Regards -- Mike
