Battle of Taniers
It seems that once the battle of Malplaquet (or Mall-placket) - celebrating its 300th anniversary this year was once called the Battle of Taniers. Interesting description of the battle on page 335 of de la Colonie's memoirs where he describes the woods fighting with the English soldiers attacking in a drunken rage.
