Hello

I had camera trouble after a trip to France in Nov.

Can anyone certify where this was taken from and what wood is in the distance.

By the running order of the snaps,i think it must be around La Boisselle,maybe from Lochnagar crater

I must have taken it for a reason,but it escapes me now

Can anyone help

Cheers

Colin H

It's taken from the edge of the Lochnagar Crater looking towards Fricourt Wood, the trees of which you can see in the distance. You are overlooking the ground where 21st Divion went over on 1st July. The track in the photo runs from the crater into Fricourt itself. The mine crater is at your back in this photo.

Hope that helps.
