There is also the 1818 marriage of Thomas Battle at Blunham.
Three Battles appear from nowhere and marry within two years of each other. They are very likely to be brothers.
The IGI shows - a patron submission, alas! - the marriage of a Simon Battle in 1790 at Cambridge. Simon was not a common name, so there must be a reasonable chance that this is the marriage you are seeking.
I'd be trying to verify the IGI entry, and checking for other Battles in Cambridge at that period.
-------------
I just had a thought, and checked the FamilyHistoryOnline site for NBI entries for Battle burials in Bedfordshire. There are very few, and one is Simon in 1859. So he should be on the 1851 - and there he is, mistranscribed as Simon Buttle, born Godmanchester, Hunts. There are Bettles on the IGI from Godmanchester, so perhaps there was a change of spelling of the surname.
Have you checked the Blunham burial registers for all Battle entries? Since the surname doesn't exist locally in that form, I'd think it likely that any other entries are also from your family. (I'd like to know what the other NBI entries are - two Johns, two Eleanors in the 1820s, for example).
