      Commemorative Information Cemetery: HANNESCAMPS CHURCHYARD, Pas de Calais, France Grave Reference/ Panel Number: B. 10.

      Location: Hannescamps is a village 20 kilometres to the south-west of Arras in the Department of the Pas de Calais. Visitors should follow the N25, Arras to Doullens road, as far as Beaumetz les Loges. Take the D7 to Ransart before turning right onto the D3, towards Foncquevillers. From the centre of Hannescamp, along the D8, follow the CWGC sign for Hannescamps New Military Cemetery. Turn left at the second CWGC sign for Hannescamps New Military Cemetery into Rue de l'Eglise. The Churchyard is next to the New Military Cemetery.


      Historical Information: Until June, 1916, and again in 1918, the village was just behind the British front line. Hannescamps Churchyard was used by French troops, and after them by the British from October, 1915 to January, 1916. The majority of the French graves have been removed. There are now over 20, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site.
