Marilyne Posted 29 March , 2023 Share Posted 29 March , 2023 Yikes... I'm sure somebody thought hard about this, but the windmills take away all the charms of the surrounding. I have a hunch that I've been there, but can't put my finger on it.... And nobody identified my little row???? M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knotty Posted 30 March , 2023 Share Posted 30 March , 2023 Hi M @neverforget has done the donkey work which gives me :- Rue-Du- Bacquerot (13th London Regiment (The Kensingtons)) Graveyard formerly known as the Red House Cemetery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stereoview Paul Posted 30 March , 2023 Share Posted 30 March , 2023 I would like to issue a challenge - where is the cross of sacrifice being installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 31 March , 2023 Admin Share Posted 31 March , 2023 Layout wise it’s suggestive of Drummond Cemetery, but I’m wondering whether it’s Gordon Cemetery…… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stereoview Paul Posted 31 March , 2023 Share Posted 31 March , 2023 Sorry not correct - the location still looks remarkably similar today. It is not too far from a much larger cemetery. There is only a distant cable and no wind turbines (well on Google anyway!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 31 March , 2023 Admin Share Posted 31 March , 2023 So unlikely to be in the Ypres Salient I’d imagine…… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first looked at it I thought of Thistle Dump as viewed from Caterpillar Valley cemetery. Which would be apt given the comment as that view has cabling issues and may even have started it off.

Stereoview Paul Posted 31 March , 2023 Share Posted 31 March , 2023 Yes well done Thistle dump - would you all be interested in another couple of these early views? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fattyowls Posted 31 March , 2023 Author Share Posted 31 March , 2023 Just now, Stereoview Paul said: would you all be interested in another couple of these early views? Very much so, thanks Paul. This is the view today from Caterpillar Valley cemetery looking over Thistle Dump to the London cemetery and the edge of High Wood. If you put Thistle Dump into your search engine of choice there are lots of photos which may be closer to the viewpoint in the original. Pete.
