In memoriam

Bois-Grenier Communal Cemetery


 
 

Bois-Grenier Communal Cemetery, Nord, France. Bois Grenier remained in British hands, though close to the front line, from October 1914 to April 1918, and the earliest British burials were made in the Communal Cemetery. There are now 121 Commonwealth burials of the 1914-18 war commemorated in this site. Of these, eight are unidentified. There are also four unidentified French burials here.

One man of the North Irish Horse, Second Lieutenant R. H. Andrews, is buried here. The location of his grave is shown on the CWGC cemetery plan below.
