Guillemont Road cemetery this evening. It was a bright low sun and blue skies at the end of a bitterly cold day. Winters out here must have been a real trial during WW1.

Going to the Menin Gate this evening. First time in two years. Laying a wreath in memory of the men of the Monmouthshire Regiment. @newport @Monmouthshire @N_YPress

One of the panels by Charles Sergeant Jagger on the Royal Artillery Memorial in London. They are true masterpieces. Sadly, they are becoming eroded away by the weather and pollution. They deserve to be preserved.

Authuille Cemetery. It is in a wonderfully tranquil spot, just above the site of Black Horse Bridge, a major crossing point over the Ancre for troops moving up to the front around Thiepval. The bridge is mentioned in many accounts.
