The remains of Roman foundations and roof tiles at Haie d’Avesnes in Bas-Lieu were confirmed through field surveys and test excavations in the 1970s. Finds from Haie d’Avesnes indicate a Gallo-Roman rural settlement dating from the 2nd to the 4th century. The Roman tomb discovered in 1805 belongs to a necropolis associated with the settlement at Haie d’Avesnes.
In the past, the woodland known as Haie d’Avesnes covered most of the present-day municipal territory of Bas-Lieu.
