From 851 to 853, the Isle of Thanet, the most easterly point of Kent, had been targeted by pagans for its small but fruitful cornfields. As such, in 853, Ealhere and the men of Kent alongside Huda and the men of Surrey engaged in a naval battle with the pagans on Thanet, where both earls were slain. (en)
