Heathfield, battle of, (battle of Haeth felth, battle of Hatfield Chase) 633. Here on the Lindsey–Elmet border, north of the Idle on Hatfield Chase, or possibly near Cuckney (Notts.), died
Edwin of
Deira, king of Northumbria, in circumstances which enabled his promotion as a saint. He was defeated on 12 October by the allies
Penda of Mercia (pagan) and
Cadwallon of Gwynedd (Christian), both threatened by Northumbrian expansion, and perhaps supported by
Bernician royal exiles. Union of Deira and Bernicia was broken, and the progress of Northumbrian Christianity temporarily halted (the next kings reverting to paganism and Bishop
Paulinus fleeing), to be resumed, under
Oswald, under Irish rather than, as formerly, Roman influence.
