mikeparr Posted 31 August , 2017 Share Posted 31 August , 2017 Has anyone got the exact location of Hill 37 near Delva Farm. I'm trying to find the area a soldier of the 2 5th Leicestershire regiment was fatally wounded and died of wounds at Remy Sidings, Poperinghe, on October 2nd 1917. A map would be most useful. Thank You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ss002d6252 Posted 31 August , 2017 Share Posted 31 August , 2017 It was the scene of a lot of action in April 1915 - the 6th DLI were thrown in to action there to prevent a German breakthrough. Another spot that was well fought over. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
