Original Note:
NNN William (the Conqueror 1066 - 1087) banned the slave trade and in some cases freed slaves, to the extent that by the end of his reign their number had fallen by 25 per cent. By the early 12th century, slavery in England was no more. https://www.historyextra.com/period/norman/surprising-facts-william-conqueror-norman-conquest-harold-godwinson-battle-stamford-bridge-when-what/
