| Sainghin-enWeppes is a town in the
Department of the Nord, some 10 kilometres north-east of La Bassée. From the
church head north and turn right at the roundabout. The cemetery is 500
metres on the left hand side and the Commonwealth burials are near the main
entrance to the cemetery. There are now nearly 30, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, almost 10 are unidentified and special memorials are erected to three others whose graves cannot be located. These men died in 1914-15, and were buried by the enemy. Three Indian graves have been removed to Rue-David Military Cemetery, Fleurbaix. |
