Cliff. Hobson Posted 9 September , 2003 Share Posted 9 September , 2003 Quote--" At 6 p.m. on the 24th (Mar ,18) the 4 S. Staffs were in a trench west of the Bapaume-Arras road, just south of the MONUMENT. at 8.0 P.M. they had retired across the main road and dug in 400 yards due east of BIENVILLERS on the right of 74th Brigade ( War Diary & K. S. p 155)" Where/what was the Monument and where was/is Bienvillers not shown on the Laon Arras series IGN map. Cliff. Hobson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff. Hobson Posted 10 September , 2003 Author Share Posted 10 September , 2003 Thanks for your help, after further digging found the 4th Staffs retreated earlier in the day (24th) from a positionon the Beugny--Fremicourt road so it must be Biefvillers. Kind regards Cliff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
