I guess that's more or less what it means Andy.

The photo was taken through a shell made hole.

Cheers,

Michael

Or 'high explosive' shell

Robert

Robert, German language is full of finesses and Michael is right: if the author says "Granatenloch" it simply means "created by a grenade", he does not distinguish by "high explosive", "gas", "filled with lead balls" etc etc, it could be even a dud.

See left indication 'Zonnebeke'.

Destroyed German artillery on the road.

Cnock.

Matt.

A fabulous set of pictures - thank you so much for sharing them with us.

I think the picture you have as number 60 above is one of the Kit and Kat bunkers on the Westhoek-Frezenberg ridge. I am fairly sure that a similar (if not the very same picture) is in the 'Collections' database of the Australian War Memorial site. I have tried to check but cannot seem to access the database at present.
