Tyne Cot Memorial to the Missing, Zonnebeke, Belgium
The largest British military cemetery in the world
The original German pill boxes can still be seen in the cemetery
"The Northumberland Fusiliers saw a resemblance to Tyneside cottages in the new German pill boxes silhouetted on the horizon, which led to them calling them 'Tyne Cottages' and hence the name
Tyne Cot"
P.72 Major and Mrs Holt's Battlefield Guide/Ypres Salient
