Description

One of many anti-tank and machine gun posts on the ridge in front of Beaurevoir, after the capture of that area, which formed the rear system of the Hindenburg Defences. In a number of cases these posts were in communication by means of buried telephone cable to unconspicuous observation posts some distance away.
