If you’re visiting the Somme Battlefields over the next few months, this makes a very cosy base!

Grace à Gilles Prilaux, la famille du Lt. Allan MacPherson a pu honorer leur grand-père, devant son empreinte dans la #CitéSouterraineDeNaours. Les histoires de dizaines d'🇦🇺 ayant laissé leurs noms à Naours sont racontées dans le centre des «Soldats Voyageurs de Naours ».

@jojohook2003 @FlandersBTour It has been a busy season :)

[Paul Johnson @Scarletboy44]

Have you got a minute - literally? Shot this at Hawthorn Ridge recently and thought I’d share it with you. If you have never visited this evocative location, I would recommend you put it on your bucket list. #WW1 #Somme

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

@fossemidge @CyrilCarnel Yes it is!

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

My husband @CyrilCarnel opened a gîte at the beginning of the year on the Somme Battlefields. Couldn’t be more proud of what a fantastic job he’s doing welcoming visitors to this special place.

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

@jojohook2003 Imagine what it’s like working here!

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

All of the services we attended today were incredibly moving and well organized. Lest we forget

Beautiful service at Lochnagar Crater this morning, but it did seem strange not having Richard Dunning there. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

Remembering the men of the Bradford and Leeds Pals on the anniversary of the eve of the Battle of the Somme.

[Commonwealth War Graves @CWGC]

Our staff recently completed work at Auchonvillers Communal Cemetery in France.

The cemetery contains 15 Commonwealth burials of #WWI, grouped in a row along the northern boundary. All but two of the graves are of men of the 1st Border Regiment who died on 6 April 1916.

Ravie de vous avoir accueillis au Centre. Merci pour votre visite

Seconde visite de l’équipe #museo1418 au centre @sirjohnmonash

[Jon Wort 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇧 @Tofrek]

A fascinating plot at Auchonvillers on the Somme.
Sadly, search facility is down on CWGC website, so cannot add details at the moment.

[Jo Hook @jojohook2003]

The beauty of having early walks. Siegfried Sassoon spent time in Amiens as did many British soldiers. When I finished my MA I was done with academic reading but wanted to just escape. I read Birdsong for the 3rd time. My imagination conjured up this sort of architecture

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

@bhltours @CWGC It was great to see you again!

[cathy carnel @carnel_cathy]

@andrewthornto20 It was nice chatting with you at the Centre earlier. Enjoy that beer
