  • The Battle of Hingston Down took place in 838, probably at Hingston Down in Cornwall between a combined force of Cornish and Vikings on the one side, and West Saxons led by Ecgberht, King of Wessex on the other. The result was a West Saxon victory. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, which called the Cornish the West Welsh: In this year a great naval force arrived among the West Welsh, and the latter combined with them and proceeded to fight against Ecgberht, king of the West Saxons. When he heard that, he then went hither with his army, and fought against them at Hingston Down, and put both the Welsh and the Danes to flight. Historians of early medieval Britain identify the site of the battle as Hingston Down north-east of Callington in Cornwall, but some writers argue for Hingston Down near Moretonhampstead, Devon. The British kingdom of Dumnonia, which covered Devon and Cornwall, survived into the early eighth century, when eastern Devon was conquered by Wessex. Conflict continued throughout the 8th century with Wessex pushing further west. In 815 King Egbert raided Cornwall 'from east to West' which, given later battles at Gafulford and Hingston Down probably indicates the conquest of the remaining parts of West Devon. This was the last recorded battle between the Cornish and the West Saxons and ended roughly a century of warfare that began at the Battle of Llongborth in 710 (see Geraint of Dumnonia). The last known king of Cornwall, Dungarth, died in 875, but he is thought to have been an under-king subject to Wessex. (en)
  • La batalla de Hingston Down tuvo lugar en 838 en Hingston Down en Cornualles entre una fuerza combinada de córnicos y vikingos por un lado, y sajones occidentales dirigidos por Egbert en el otro, con victoria de estos últimos. El reino británico de Dumnonia, que abarcaba Devon y Cornualles, había sobrevivido hasta comienzos del siglo VIII, cuándo Devon fue conquistado por Wessex. Cornualles sobrevivió durante otro siglo más,, pero en 815 fue asolado por un ejército al mando de Egbert. En 838 los córnicos se aliaron con «una gran armada de barcos» vikingos para luchar contra los sajones del oeste, pero fueron derrotados en Hingston Down. Esta sería la última batalla recordada entre córnicos y sajones, y concluyó con la pérdida de la independencia de Cornualles. El último rey de Cornualles, Dungarth, murió en 875, pero se considera que fue un virrey sometido a Wessex.​ (es)
