The village was successfully defended by Guillaume de l'Estandart, aided by the Beynes garrison who came to lend him a hand. He attacked the English near the Carcassonne farm and routed them. The site of the battle is now called "prise aux anglais".
A column erected in 1845, on the edge of the Couperie road in Beynes bears this inscription:
"Under Charles VII, the Beynes garrison defeated the enemy and this place is called la Prise aux Anglais".
