Nice combinations CT, I like the last one showing the spirits of the past moving through the battlefield to their resting place
Here is a comparison from the Somme, the road to Thiepval 1919 - 2009, this one took a little findng but it does come together
Thanks

Andy,
What is the date of the image from Mill Road towards Thiepval, just wondering if the building is military or a farm building.

Hello Mick
The building I understand is one of the shacks built to house builders/clearance workers to clear the battlefeld in the 1920s
I would think built by the British Army, can anyone else add anything to Micks question?
