1066 ARROW HUNT LAUNCHED

Find one of the 1,066 arrows hidden at our sites to claim prizes ranging from a private tour of Stonehenge to hundreds of cream teas.

We've hidden 1,066 wooden arrows at our sites across England to mark the 950th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings.

The arrow hunt began yesterday at 10am, and will continue until all the arrows have been found.

Each arrow has a unique code, so each lucky visitor who finds one will win one of 1,066 prizes. Grand prizes include a castle sleepover, a private tour of Stonehenge, and tickets to English Heritage's re-enactment of the Battle of Hastings in October. There are also hundreds of smaller prizes to claim, including free entry to sites and cream teas.

To launch the arrow hunt, we've unveiled a giant arrow at the Battle of Hastings battlefield in East Sussex. While that arrow is impossible to miss, the 1,066 hidden arrows - with red feathers and a red tip - are a bit more difficult to spot.
