I was wondering if anyone could help me with a trench map

I have Bethune X6 a 7.2 which i am reliably informed is possibly where he was first buried before he was moved to Browns road Military cemetery, Festubert.

thanks in advance

regards

Arm.

Dave,

Just me being stupid i bet but when you cut a sq into four don't you start with A at top left not bottom left!???

X6 A 7.2

perhaps i have mis-understood my lesson that the Pals gave me whilst away

thanks again for the map.

regards

Arm.

It's top-left that I've illustrated! :blink:

( only half of X6 (X6a and X6c) is shown on this particular map (the other half being on map 36SW).Where've you got the impression that it shows X6c from? )

Dave. :)
