Walford Manifold's WW1 Diary

View Larger Map

I happened, by chance, to fluke upon the unfolding of an account of life on the Western Front during WW1 through the eyes of an Australian, who enlisted with a British artillery squadron (?).

Here is my attempt to anchor my following of his diary and letters home to his father and mother. Mentioned in his diary thus far are

Beuvry (A)
Bethune (B)
Cambrin (C), and
La Basse Road (D).

I will update this map whenever a new location is mentioned in either the diary or the letters. If you were to click where it says 'View larger map', you will be taken out of my Plumbing blog and into Google maps. Then if you were to click on the + end of the sliding bar that is down the LHS of the map, you can zoom into the map and take a closer look at the terrain.

Walford's blog emanates from Canberra, and can be found at Diary of E.W. Manifold.
