Slaget ved Heavenfield blev udkæmpet i 633 eller 634 mellem en nordumbriansk hær under Oswald af Bernicia og en walisisk hær under Cadwallon ap Cadfan fra Gwynedd. Slaget resulterede i en afgørende nordumbriansk sejr. Annales Cambriae optegnede slaget som Bellum Cantscaul i 631. Bede henviste til det som Slaget ved Deniseburna nær Hefenfelth.
En alliance mellem Cadwallon fra Gwynedd og kong Penda af Mercia havde ført til en invasion af Northumbria. Dette var en underlig alliance mellem en kristen konge af brytonisk afstamning og en hedensk konge af angliansk afstamning. Ved Slaget ved Hatfield Chase den 12. oktober 633 havde de invaderende waliser og mercianere dræbt den nordumbrianske konge Edwin, og Northumbria blev delt mellem sine to underkongeriger, Bernicia og Deira. Cadwallons hær herjede Northumbria.
