17 June 1915:
Gore Wood.
LF Company according to the Battalion diary were engaged in trench digging , but were heavily shelled so had to relent. They had to remain in trenches all night.
Today there is a Great War cemetery in Gorre Wood, for the many British and Indian casualties, and less ceremoniously 4 German dead.
