search for a military camp site

[Augustin]

Hello everyone, I have read several times in the past that there was a WW1 camp between "Eecke and Steenvoorde" can anyone locate the camp please? is there a map showing the camp? thanks in advance

Augustin,

A 1918 map from the Linesman collection shows a coupe of small hutted camps. The only one between Steenvoorde and Eecke (not in either village) is near Floral Farm; however, this does not look like a site that could house a battalion. There may be other earlier or later camps but none that jump out.

Kind regard

I thank you for your help. 
I will try to continue my research from this camp.

Augustine,

There were probably a lot of camps there but not every camp was marked on trench maps. If you had aerial photos of that area you would probably see a lot more camps, and other things.

Indeed Arné,
But it is more than rare to find photographs in this place, I would even say almost impossible to find. I am looking for maps in this place which would be very precious for my research.
