No 6 Infantry Base Depot, No 3 Camp, Bleville 1914

[geofffox]

Hi All

Could anyone tell me when No. 6 Infantry Base Depot, No. 3 Camp, was established at Bleville, France? I'd like to find out m ore about this Depot as I think a relative of mine might would have been sent their in early November 1914 as part of a draft bound for 2 DLI who were then in and around Armentieres. My main question is when was it established, but any information about the Depot would be appreciated.

Regards

Coldm
