Hello All !

Please could anyone help !

Would anyone have a copy of a Trench Map with :- French Lane, Turk Lane, Black Watch Trench & Worcester Trench on it.

I am not sure where it is but my great grandad spent the last week of his life rebuilding Black Watch Trench

Much Appreciated

Charley - Black Watch and Worcester trenchs are here - you can see the bottom of High Wood at the top of the picture. Black Watch itself is a little hard to make out, but is the one running NW to SE along the path of the track on the right. The map is dated 29.9.16.....

...and here is the modern day map for comparison.

May your Great Grandad rest in peace....

Alan

Hello Alan,

Thankyou for the map & information.... He died on the 10.09.16 & is buried in Delville Wood Cemetery so that makes perfect sense, just didn't realise they were as close to High Wood as that.

Many Thanks

Charly
