Steve11148 Posted 11 December , 2018 Share Posted 11 December , 2018 Ive searched al my books and googled extensively but still can't find the location of "Artillery Lane" that's mentioned several times in the War Diaries of 88th Machine Gun Company of 88th Bde, June/July 1916 in the area between Englebelmer and Beaumont Hamel. Can anyone shed any light on this please? Any help greatly appreciated, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acknown Posted 11 December , 2018 Share Posted 11 December , 2018 Try this, north of Beaucourt: http://digitalarchive.mcmaster.ca/islandora/object/macrepo%3A69480/-/collection. Does that make sense? Acknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Regiano Posted 11 December , 2018 Share Posted 11 December , 2018 and using the overlay transparency slider on this page will give you an idea of its location on a present day map: https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=15&lat=50.0848&lon=2.6849&layers=101465248&b=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
