Description
View of Bellewaarde Ridge (left), Clapham Junction, (through Chateau Woods in the background), Bellewaarde Lake and Hooge (both right). On the far right a group of unidentified soldiers are gathered near drum barrels and piles of soil. Other soldiers can be seen in the background near a light railway line and a horsedrawn ambulance. On the far left are two loaded railway carts and more are visible in the background (left). Numerous waterfilled shell holes mark the countryside. During the Third Battle of Ypres this area was littered with the derailed and smashed carts from the light railways and destroyed pill boxes. This is a digitally combined composite panorama made up of two separate images. It is only available as a digital print. The two images are available separately at E01827 and E02025.
