Description
View from the quarry in front of Mouquet Farm, in France, looking south across the valley to Skyline Trench, showing the shell pitted nature of this slope on which the German barrage used to fall in the summer. "Feb 4 (1917) went with Baldwin to Pozieres and Mouquet Farm to get some photos of the craters there and of Margetts' grave. The pitted ground does not show on an ordinary photo, but the snow shows up the contours." CEW Bean 3DRL606/69/1 page 33
