La maison, dite "Maison d'Alphonse", était pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la propriété de Jean et Marie Gicquel qui furent très impliqués dans le succès des missions d'exfiltration des aviateurs alliés qui avaient connu quelques déconvenues en France ou en Belgique.
Cette habitation était le dernier passage des aviateurs et de leurs agents convoyeurs. Ils séjournaient ici avant de rejoindre la plage Bonaparte, par nuit noire pour rejoindre l'Angleterre.

De la "maison d'Alphone", il ne reste plus rien. L'occupant fit sauter les lieux.

Une stèle est aujourd'hui proposée aux visiteurs.
