would some kind soul answer my question pleasei.e. a grid ref or similar location indicator?

Kerry.

For a grid reference from a modern map, see the thread "Oosthoek Wood" from this part of the forum. As far as I can make out, "Dirty Bucket Camp" lay in the western grid square that is mentioned.

Many thanks Jacky - do you happen to know if the area where the camp was can be visited - or do I need to seek prior permission of the landowner?

Kerry

In the Galgebossen forest Elverdinge there is now a freely accessible 6.5 km long signposted Galgebossen walking route, which starts at the forest car park in Gasthuisstraat near restaurant de Vuile Seule (Dirty Bucket).

When he joined the Belgian Army in 1915, my grandfather's home address was Sint-Pieterstraat 10 Elverdinge (Dirty Bucket Sidings).
