For 10 points, name this 1403 battle in which Henry Percy, also known as Hotspur, was defeated by the Lancastrians under Henry IV.
his battle occurred at a manor owned by Richard Hussey, after the local abbot Thomas Prestbury attempted to negotiate peace between the armies, and Hussey later applied for a license to build a chapel on the site in honor of the fallen soldiers. After one participant in this battle received an arrow to the skull, the physician John Bradmore is said to have poured honey into the wound and invented a pair of tongs to extract the arrow. The Earl of Stafford was killed and his right wing fled the field, under attack from archers recruited from Cheshire, while the royal standard bearer Sir Walter Blount was mistaken for the king and killed. The losing commander here had turned on the king for not ransoming his brother-in-law Edmund Mortimer, and was supported by his uncle, the Earl of Winchester, but sadly did not receive any troops from Owen Glendower.
