We have been to the A.I.F. Burial Ground a few times now. Each time, visiting to take photographs of lads' headstones, in order for another to commemorate them with an image. Although its address is given as Flers, it is nearer to the village of Gueudecourt - being found less than half a mile west of that village. It is accessed by a track called Grass Lane and a handful of cars can park on this Lane. The entrance gate slopes down from this Lane and, thus, can get waterlogged, as one of my photographs shows. It is a quiet, peaceful cemetery with wide vistas all around.

Le château de Flers The castle is composed of two wings at right angles. The older one, built at the 16th century under Nicolas III of Grosparmy is characterized by its bell shaped roofs with lanterns on top. The classic frontage was built at the 18th century by Ange-Hyacinthe de la Motte-Ango. The park and the castle were the property of the counts of Flers until the French Revolution. After this period they became the property of the Schnetz family. In 1901, Julien Salles the mayor of Flers bought the domain. The castle became the town hall and a museum. The museum Follow the steps of emblematic women and men of the domain ! The new museography of 2016 puts the light on the history of the castle and its owners.
