		The battle was also known as Cogwy to the Welsh, with the men of Powys probably participating in the battle as allies of the Mercians.
		The battle may more accurately be characterized as marking the defeat of Northumbrian imperialism south of the Humber: the 20th century historian Frank Stenton wrote of Penda that his resistance may have prevented the establishment of "a loosely compacted kingdom of England under Northumbrian rule" by the mid-7th century.
		Following the battle, Deira, in the southern part of Northumbria, chose a king of its own, Oswine, while Bernicia in the north (which had been dominant, with Oswald, a member of the Bernician royal line, ruling both Bernicia and Deira prior to Maserfield) was ruled by Oswald's brother Oswiu.
