The Battle of Britain started on 10 July 1940. British historians usually regard 31 October 1940 as the end, but this is an arbitary date.
There are disagreements about the definition of the term 'Battle of Britain'. British historians use the term for a. the German attempts to destroy the RAF and, above all, its bases, and b. the first stage of the 'blitz', that is, heavy daylight bombing of the infrastructure and civilian targets. German historians tend to combine the entire 'blitz' with the initial attempt to knock out the RAF bases. This gives an end date in May 1941, when the German bombers were transferred to eastern Germany for the attack on the Soviet Union.
The RAF website gives the conventional British dates of 10 July-31 Ocotber 1940.
The starting date of the Battle of Britain is unsure. Some historians start it as early as June 5th, others as late as August 13th.
