Fields of Battle - Ferme de Confrecourt - Chapelle du Pere Doncoeur First mentioned in 893, established by the Benedictine abbey of St Medard in Soissons as a small monastery and farm. Fortified during the 14th century, measuring about 110m x 80m. Huge barn 46m by 17.50 - known as the ?La Grange du Diable?. Legend is that the Devil promised to build it in one night in exchange for the soul of the builder: however the crafty builder woke up the cock just as Satan laid the last stone and so saved his soul.
