12 more pictures added to Ramparts Cemetery, Lille Gate in Ieper, Belgium, courtesy of Geerhard Joos. The cemetery is by the Lille Gate, on top of the old rampart, over what had been dug-outs. It was begun by French troops in November 1914 and used by Commonwealth units at intervals from February 1915 to April 1918. The cemetery contains 198 Commonwealth burials of the First World War. The French graves have been removed.
