Access to the trench complex is limited
to a few trenches to protect the trenches being damaged by the large
number of visitors. This was the first time I had seen an actual World
War One trench system and I was amazed by the sheer scale. These
photographs taken on the 11th November 2008 should give you some idea of
the depth of the trench system. |

Memorial to the offices and men of the
Newfoundland Forces who gave their lives in the Great War and who have
no known grave. |
