shazbaz123 Posted 28 June , 2013 Share Posted 28 June , 2013 Diane We live in the Nadder Valley in Wiltshire. During WW1 the whole area was one vast camp , with lots of Anzac troops awaiting postings to the Western Front. Most of our local church yards have military sections, with lots of named graves. We're only a mile from The Fovant Badges. If any of this is of interest to you or your friends, let us know. Cheers Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
