temptage Posted 30 June , 2016 Share Posted 30 June , 2016 BOTTOM WOOD CEMETERY, FRICOURT, on the south edge of a small wood between Mametz and Fricourt Woods. This was a field ambulance station for some months from July 1916, and the cemetery contained 104 graves. Maybe someone can come up with a map of its location for you. The graves were concentrated into Dantzig Alley British Cemetery, Mametz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
