petey Posted 6 February , 2011 Share Posted 6 February , 2011 Hello all, found this map in the 16th unit war diaries, researching the 13th, they replaced the 16th at " Farm corner " on the 25 jan 1916. Nice hand drawn map, just wonder if anyone can put that area into a real map ! i cant work it out ! Meny thanks pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger H Posted 6 February , 2011 Share Posted 6 February , 2011 Pete Here is a trench map dated Dec 1915 which more or less accords with your drawing. The area is East of Bethune and North West of La Bassee. Farm Corner is in square S16c, but not annotated. Roger Ooops - S16c is just off the map I posted! If you need a wider area, please say so.

Roger H Posted 6 February , 2011 Share Posted 6 February , 2011 I have attached another map showing S16c - this one dated June 1916. Farm Corner is actually marked on this map, but you probably won't be able to see it! The reference is approximately S.16.c.4.6. All maps courtesy of the NA Trench Map DVD from Naval and Military Press. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
