Battle of Otford ( 776 ) The Battle of Otford was a battle fought in 776 between Mercia , led by King Offa , and the Jutes of Kent at Otford ( in what is today in the English county of Kent ) . Although the outcome of the battle is not recorded , the re - establishment of Kent as an independent kingdom implies that the battle was won by Kent . The " Anglo - Saxon Chronicle " notes only that the Mercians and the people of Kent fought at Otford , without giving the outcome . It is from the four charters issued by independent kings of Kent in the years after 776 that we can deduce that Otford was a Kentish victory . S 35 ( dated 778 ) , S 36 ( dated 779 ) and S 37 ( not precisely dated ) are in the name of King Ecgberht , while S 38 ( dated 784 ) is in the name of King Ealhmund . The changeover between Ecgberht and Ealhmund cannot be dated more precisely than 779 – 784 . Kent was struggling to keep its independence against the growing power of Mercia . In the 770s Kent ' s rulers were resisting their demotion to subkings . According to Henry of Huntingdon , the Mercians were victorious at this battle near Sevenoaks . But the historian Frank Stenton argued that Egbert of Kent defeated Offa and that Kentish independence was restored for some years . But after Offa ' s victory over Wessex at Bensington , pressure was resumed and Kent subdued and absorbed into Mercia .
