BATTLE OF GUINEGATE (1513)


The 'Battle of the Spurs' or 'Battle of Guinegate' took place on August 16, 1513. As part of the Holy League under the on-going Italian Wars, English troops under Henry VIII defeated a French army under Marshal La Palice.
Called "Battle of the Spurs" because of the haste of the French to leave the battlefield, it took place at Guinegate (now ''Enguinegatte'', France).
