Currently reading about the 110 (Leicestershire) Brigade, which comprised 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th Service Battalions of the Leicestershire Regiment attack on the Somme on 25th and 26th September 1916 around Guedecourt, Does anyone know which German regiment(s) were holding the line at Goat and Gird Trench at the time?

Thanks, Rob

There are great maps at Kew showing such detail. For Battle of Morval the treasure is in WO153/207. There are 63 maps in the folder covering 4 and 5 Armies for the period 10 Sep to 11 Nov 1916. 21 Division were with III Corps of 4 Army.

Hello Rob,

If you would like the individual diary entries from the 6th, 7th, 8th & 9th Battalions for the 25th & 26th, then please pm your e mail address and i'll gladly send them over.

That's if you don't already have them?

Regards.

Llew.
