abigailbarrie1 Posted 3 May , 2018 Share Posted 3 May , 2018 Hello all, perhaps a silly inqury but i was wondering if anyone had any insight to the Wimereux Communal Cemetery. I was wondering why the headstones are laid down flat instead of upright like all the other CWGC cemeteries? Is there any specific reason for this?

Admin Michelle Young Posted 3 May , 2018 Admin Share Posted 3 May , 2018 https://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/8200/wimereux-communal-cemetery/ the majotiry of the gravestones are also flat at Boulogne Eastern as well. As it says in the CWGC information, it's because of the sandy nature of the soil Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
