Bettany Hughes considers the fifth age of Britain, from 1066 to 1350, charting the period between two shattering historical events - the invasion of William the Conqueror and the Black Death. She looks for evidence of the effects of the Norman conquest, from the castles that sprang up to the soaring cathedral vaults that marked the peak of medieval exuberance.
