chaz Posted 3 September , 2022 Share Posted 3 September , 2022 btw, if going to Cambrin Military, last time we went they were building a house on the car park, so had to park over the road. Also watch the dog mess on the footpath, its got worse over the years despite me writing to CWGC complaining, couple of noisy dogs and no effective fence in the bungalow alongside.

I was going to say Royal Irish Rifles Graveyard because I thought I was missing a photo from there, but ive just found the offending file incorrectly named, so Im good on that now thankyou. Ive got 12 of the Cemeteries on your list on my list. Only 1 or 2 photos at each, as far as I am aware from an initial quick check. Im just starting to prepare a list to put on here. By no means am I expecting all of them, as some are at the question mark Cemeteries anyway, but any you can take will be appreciated. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
