Dave Phillips Posted 20 July , 2014 Share Posted 20 July , 2014 So what is the circle in the Hooge Crater Cemetery that contains the Stone of Remembrance? Was it another crater or just a symbolic crater? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r30rvp Posted 20 July , 2014 Author Share Posted 20 July , 2014 Thanks for the heads up on this; typically it's closed the week I'm going! (12th-19th August). Will definitely check out the crater itself though, I didn't know there was one still there. That's when I'm there, might see you up around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurel Sercu Posted 20 July , 2014 Share Posted 20 July , 2014 So what is the circle in the Hooge Crater Cemetery that contains the Stone of Remembrance? Was it another crater or just a symbolic crater? . Dave, Only symbolic. Reminiscent of the real one across the road. (Scott : "The circular depression at the entrance represents the crater blown in 1915.") Aurel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Phillips Posted 22 July , 2014 Share Posted 22 July , 2014 Thanks Aurel, I always thought it was but there are so many in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armourersergeant Posted 24 July , 2014 Share Posted 24 July , 2014 Thanks all for getting the location of the crater spotted. Been of opinion that it was further up on the map. Strange to think that all this time I have been looking for location I have actually been standing on the site, give or take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebie9173 Posted 24 July , 2014 Share Posted 24 July , 2014 Does that mean we have to go back AGAIN!? Steve. P.S. There must be a nice memorial nearby we can visit, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
