A 15th century manor house was destroyed by Burgundian troops during their retreat from Beauvais after the victory of Jeanne Hachette.

Enlarged in the 18th century, the château was very much part of the Ancien Régime and when, during the French Revolution, it was decided to confiscate the property, the Count of Grivesnes didn't oppose it, as his son (Louis-Henri (1766–1849)) had already emigrated to Quebec.

An inhabitant of Grivesnes, Roch Théry, whose family had lived in the parish for more than two centuries, purchased some of the land as well as the mill, although it was later returned to its owners.

[3] Fighting hand-to-hand, with fixed bayonets, the French and British troops cut off the road to Amiens to the Germans.

Many soldiers were buried in unmarked graves, without any ceremony.In June 1990, a commemorative stele was erected by French and German ex-combatants.
