RGKeery Posted 31 January , 2015 Share Posted 31 January , 2015 Hi Wondering if anyone could advise where I can find a trench map for La Petite Douve Farm covering May 1915. 1/8th Royal Warwicks were in situ at that time. The War Diary for 31st May 1915 mentions my grandfather in action near trench 73. Planning a visit for the 100th anniverary and would really like to find the area of this trench. Any ideas?

Tom Lang Posted 10 February , 2015 Share Posted 10 February , 2015 The National Library of Scotland has all the WW1 Trench Maps available online. You can also view them with zoomable overlays of modern Google or Bing maps. http://maps.nls.uk/ww1/trenches/ Kindest Regards, Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
