Siege of Ypres (1383)
The Siege of Ypres in 1383 occurred between June 8 and August 8 as part of Despenser's Crusade and the Revolt of Ghent (1379-1385), by English forces and forces from the Flemish city of Ghent. The siege was a failure.
== Prelude ==
The city of Ghent in the County of Flanders, rebelled in September 1379 against their count Louis of Male, who supported France against England in the Hundred Years' War, which was against the economic interests of Flanders. After their defeat at the Battle of Roosebeke in November 1382, the citizens of Ghent requested English assistance, who sent a force under Henry le Despenser, the Bishop of Norwich.
The English landed at Calais in May 1383 and took Gravelines, Dunkirk, Poperinge, and Nieuwpoort. On 25 May the crusaders put to flight a Franco-Flemish army, under the command of Louis of Male, in a pitched battle fought near Dunkirk.〔''Westminster Chronicle'' (On-line version )〕〔Knighton (On-line version )〕
Despenser was then persuaded by his Ghent allies and some of his officers to besiege Ypres,〔Becke, p.553〕 who had remained loyal to the count and to France.
