A bloody Anglo Saxon conflict believed to have taken place in Liverpool which forged modern England is seen by historians as one of the most significant battles in British history but remains largely unknown to its people. The Battle of Brunanburh in 937AD saw King Aethelstan s English forces fight a Viking-led alliance in a brutal combat which saw six kings and seven earls killed. At the time of the battle, Britain was a divided nation ruled by the Celts in the far north, the Earls of Northumberland (of Norse, viking decent) in the north of England and most of Ireland while the Anglo Saxons controlled central and southern England.
