The Z, Gommecourt, Somme

Many years ago I read about this area. This is taken from the position of the Allied front line looking towards the German line in front of the woods. The Z machine gun post was near the Pylon in the centre of the picture. The land is so flat and open. It is difficlult to believe such dreadful events happened here on such a lovely day this was taken August in 2005.
