Walking through the trenches in Sanctuary Wood.

New trees line the trenches which inhabited a barren wasteland 90 years ago.

Looking down the trench line.

Shell holes still mark the landscape to this day.

Inside one of the tunnels linking the trench lines.

Amongst the trenches and new vegetation are piles of old shells and other items of interest including some original German headstones.
