PEN, a town of Somersetshire, in England, on the
north-east side of Wincanton, where Kenwald a West
Saxon king so totally defeated the Britons, that they
were never after able to make head against the Saxons;
and where, many ages after this, Edmund Ironside
gained a memorable victory over the Danes, who had
before, i.e. in 1001, defeated the Saxons in that same
place.
