An ex-coalmining commune, now a light industrial and farming town, situated some 14 miles northeast of Lens, completely encircled by the N17 and D919 ring road.
Major excavations have recently revealed occupation going back to Neolithic times. This settlement is linked to the existence of the vast wet depression around the now-disappeared castle of Epinoy. In the early 12th century, the hamlet of Épinoy, now the east part of the commune, was the home of the hermit Saint Druon of Sebourg.
