This mountain was named in 1917 in honour of HMS Kent which was a cruiser engaged in the Battle of the Falkland Islands during the First World War. The Cornwall (48019-062) and Glasgow (48019-070), together with HMS Kent, were pursuing three German warships that were trying to escape the main battle and seek refuge in Tierra del Fuego. Choosing to concentrate their attention on the German light cruiser Leipzig, HMS Glasgow engaged first, attempting to slow down the fleeing German ship and allow the Cornwall to catch up and assist. The Glasgow suffered some hits but the tactic was successful and soon HMS Cornwall came into range and hit the Leipzig. The two English ships then engaged their wounded quarry from opposite sides, their fire becoming more and more effective as they slowly closed the range. The Leipzig heeled over and sank rapidly by her bows. The British ships could rescue only 18 of the 286 sailors.
