In his youth, Ethelwulf performed brilliantlyas a general for his father Egbert. Ethelwulf's forces defeated the sub-king of Kent, whith the result that Sussex, Essex, Surrey and Kent were added to the kingdom of Wessex. As king of Wessex, Ethelwulf worried increasingly abut the Danish threat.

According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, the battle resulted in'the biggest slaughter among the heathen host that we have ever heardtell of to this present day'. Events: Abdication in 856.
