Knotty Posted 23 August , 2023 Share Posted 23 August , 2023 Would the landmark in question be Cpt Albert Ball VC crash site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Forge Posted 23 August , 2023 Share Posted 23 August , 2023 Are we anywhere near 'Ocean Works', SW of Haucourt (51B SW). The trees and turbines line up, but not the power lines. But there's some correspondence to the general area of Monchy, Guemappe etc. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 23 August , 2023 Admin Share Posted 23 August , 2023 Not there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Forge Posted 23 August , 2023 Share Posted 23 August , 2023 This isn't the right answer, but are we withing a mile or two of Triangle Cemetery? Turbines and powerlines look good, and the general lie of the land, but viewpoints a bit limited on street view... Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been chasing my backside up and down lanes all around NorthernFrance with street view, I’m still unsure as to wether M is looking for a specific landmark or indeed a cemetery. And I will swear, quite a lot, if it’s in Belgium😁 Edited 23 August , 2023 by Knotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Michelle Young Posted 26 August , 2023 Admin Share Posted 26 August , 2023 A clue to my mystery location. On this particular date, it would have been very dangerous to be there, as witness the nearby communal cemetery, with some casualties of the events of this day.

Knotty Posted 26 August , 2023 Share Posted 26 August , 2023 (edited) Piggy backing on to @neverforget and Le Cateau, would it be that large unnamed stone monolith* in the middle of the field down a track, with some names of those lost on the retreat from Mons? *II Corps Memorial Stone Edited 26 August , 2023 by Knotty Found out the name of Memorial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
