Peter Woodger Posted 3 October , 2009 Share Posted 3 October , 2009 Hi I repeat one of Steve Morse’s slides which Paul Reed suggested was Sucrerie cemetery. I could not agree as the crosses were all in the wrong place. We wondered if later concentrations were the reason but I now realise that it is the opposite. This is a view of Sucrerie before the French burials were removed. My apologies for doubting you Paul. This helps to date Steve’s pictures as they were taken after stones were erected in Forceville and before the French were removed from Sucrerie. I post my attempt on a now shot in the next post Peter A modern view Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1690philip Posted 4 October , 2009 Share Posted 4 October , 2009 Great photographs lads Sucrerie is becoming a popular stop from Ulster visitors with Rfm Croizer buried there. I really enjoy the walk down to the cemetery, gives you time to reflect. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

condronjames Posted 5 March , 2023 Share Posted 5 March , 2023 Replying to an old post here. I was recently sent this photo of Sucrerie from the IWM website. I thought it might be of interest to the people on this post. Hopefully it supports the view above that the other old photo shown is Sucrerie.
