Description

The French countryside between Armentieres, near the Franco-Belgian border, and Bois Grenier to the south. A farmhouse sits amid fields, with other buildings beyond it. To the left of the farmhouse and also stretching across the middle distance are a line of hessian barriers designed to prevent observation by the enemy. This is the fifth image in a 15 part panorama. See EZ0172P for the combined image.
