Newfoundland Memorial

After a quick breakfast, it was off to the Newfoundland Memorial. Maintained by the Canadian Government, it preserves part of the battlefield from July 1916 and acts as a memorial to those who didn't return, Canadian and British. Still scarred with shell holes, the trenches can be seen clearly and in places you can walk down them. A very emotional journey, even 90 or so years on. We also briefly visited one of the cemeteries that are all too common in this area. DGW
