Chris_Baker Posted 5 February , 2006 Share Posted 5 February , 2006 From the website of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, http://www.cwgc.org/default.asp Citadel New Military Cemetery, Fricourt and Bray Vale British Cemetery, Bray Sur Somme, France These cemeteries are on the RD147 between Fricourt and Bray. This road is being renovated and the work will last until the end of April 2006. During this period, the road will be closed and unfortunately public access to these cemeteries will not be possible.

Papineau Posted 5 February , 2006 Share Posted 5 February , 2006 This is possibly due to the expansion of the Aerospace factory at Meaulte, and the creation of a runway to get Airbus parts out. You can still access Citadel Cemetery on foot by going to Fricourt and following the 'Ball Trap' signs up to the Point 110 Old and New Cemeteries. From them it is about 15 mins walks to the Citadel. Nice walk, and well worth it. Not much over, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
