Hargicourt Comm Cem Ext

 

 

 

Hargicourt Communal Cemetery Extension ligt aan de "Rue de Cimetière Protestant"  en de coordinaten zijn 49.96516 - 3.178

Er bevinden zich 73 graven, waarvan 56(UK), 12(Aus) en 5(Unk) op dit cemetery.

 

 

 

 

 

Hargicourt werd bezet door Britse troepen in april 1917 en op 21 april 1918 weer verloren aan de Duitsers en opnieuw heroverd op 18 september door Australische troepen.


Het cemetery werd in augustus 1917 aangelegd, achter de Duitse Extension die gelegen was bij het Communal Cemetery.

De 177 Duitse kriegsgräber werden later verwijderd, zodoende ligt de Britse Extension geïsoleerd.
