Hereward expected King Sweyn II of Denmark to conquer England, and joining forces with Danish sailors, he sacked the abbey, possibly to prevent its treasures from falling into the hands of Turold, the new Norman abbot. When Sweyn made peace with William the Danes went home, but Hereward set up a base of operations on the Isle of Ely that would serve as a refuge for Anglo-Saxon rebels, including the onetime Earl Morcar of Northumbria.
