Marco Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 One of my favourites - Fifteen Ravine British Cemetery, Villers-Plouich. I recall that the Cross of Sacrifice was destroyed by a lighning strike some years ago. Pic taken on a sunny day. Correct: http://www.xs4all.nl/~aur/layout/frames.ht...EENRAVINEBC.htm Regards, Marco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesCroft Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Another fairly easy one. You'll notice I have stopped handing out cigars. You are too good at this. I'm rubbish at this but I'll have a go at Poperinge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanCurragh Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Could the last one be Sucrerie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 30 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 30 March , 2010 No and ... no again. I can understand the Sucrerie bit. Long, narrow. But there are a lot more trees round Sucrerie (near Colincamps). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 30 March , 2010 Admin Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Rue du Baquerot or Berceau? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevem49 Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Right next to both cemeteries and strategically positioned off camera! Is the latest in the Kemmel area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 30 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Only vaguely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevem49 Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Get me own back - where is this? The above is an easy one (for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 30 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Rue du Baquerot or Berceau? Getting warmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevem49 Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 So the Neuve Chapelle Festubert area then (maybe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 30 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verrico2009 Posted 30 March , 2010 Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Visually (never having been) Browns Road looks to have similar trees and a building a bit like the glimpse in the background... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 30 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 30 March , 2010 Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Marshall Posted 31 March , 2010 Share Posted 31 March , 2010 I can't name the cemetery, but I do notice the West Yorkshire Regiment men buried closest to the camera. Germans too a little further back. Cheers, Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 31 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 31 March , 2010 Let me put your pain to an end. The pic is of Rue-David Military Cemetery near Fleurbaix. CWGC details. Let's try another one. For once, I had good weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoj22 Posted 31 March , 2010 Share Posted 31 March , 2010 Hebuterne? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 31 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 31 March , 2010 Got it in one. Well done. It is part of Hebuterne Military Cemetery. Ok, so how about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Marshall Posted 31 March , 2010 Share Posted 31 March , 2010 Looks like Railway Dugouts Burial Ground (Transport Farm) to me. In fact with the second, smaller, circle down the incline, I'm convinced of it. That would be the Valley Cottage Cemetery and Transport Farm Annexe Memorials. Cheers, Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevem49 Posted 31 March , 2010 Share Posted 31 March , 2010 I would agree. Got hit on the head by a conker when taking photos there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 31 March , 2010 Author Share Posted 31 March , 2010 Quite right, chaps. Now you're cooking on gas. It is indeed Transport Farm (Railway Dugouts) Cemetery near Zillebeke. If you squint you can just see the tips of spires in Ypres above the buildings. How about this one? It may be a bit harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaymen Posted 2 April , 2010 Share Posted 2 April , 2010 C'mon Chris, give us a clue, area maybe ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD60new Posted 2 April , 2010 Share Posted 2 April , 2010 Near Arras, Tilloye les Mofflaines Maybe ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Marshall Posted 2 April , 2010 Share Posted 2 April , 2010 I was at Tilloy les Mofflaines in March. This isn't Tilloy. There are a few cemeteries in the area though. I'm stumped. Cheers, Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
River97 Posted 2 April , 2010 Share Posted 2 April , 2010 I'll have a stab and say Hooge Crater Cemetery on the Menin Road. Not 100% sure, it's been years since I've been there, the buildings look a bit close. Cheers Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 2 April , 2010 Author Share Posted 2 April , 2010 Tilloy was a lot closer than Hooge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
