Battle of Eddington

King Alfred of Wessex, later to become known as Alfred the Great, defeated a Danish force led by Guthrum, at Eddington, in Wiltshire. Alfred was aided by men from Somerset, Hampshire, and Wiltshire. According to peace terms drawn up at Wedmore, Guthrum agreed to be baptised and withdraw his forces to the East, forming The Danelaw, where Danish rule held sway, while Alfred controlled the west of England.
