Description

Looking south towards a dense line of tall trees standing on the banks of the River Ancre (not in view) in the midground, with higher ground rising at rear to the trees of Marett Wood. A road traverses the slope immediately above the tops of the tall trees in the midground and joins with the so-called Sunken Road, which runs in a cutting in Sector J.5.d (left). A faint clump of trees on the horizon (extreme left) marks the site of the Copse Cemetery. Part 12 of a twelve-part panorama.
