more of same....This statue is made from a single piece of stone and is truly wonderful. It has several names, as far as I can tell. I like "The Spirit of Canada weeps for her lost sons" best.
more....On the left are the remains of the huge German bunker in Rossignol Wood which made a mess of the British diversionary attack on 1st July. The cemetery on the left is Contay, which in the autumn is picturesque to say the very least.
Two cemeteries. Ovillers from the Albert-Bapaume road. I haven't been to the actual cemetery. The other one is Owl Trench, one of the little places in the north of the battlefield. If memory serves, the graves are all from 1917.
Last one from Pop. This is the Reverend PCB 'Tubby' Clayton who founded Talbot house with his chum Neville Talbot. When I was a kid I joined the 1st City of London (Lord Mayor's Own) scouts, and it was based in Talkbot House at Tower Hill. Tubby Clayton died the same year and lived there in the apartments above the scout hall which was in the basement. It is now a wine bar. There is a blue plaque on the wall outside in memory of Tubby. I don't remember seeing him.
