HOUDAIN LANE CEMETERY

Feuchy

Pas de Calais

France

 

General Directions: Houdain Lane Cemetery lies just west of Feuchy, a small village approximately 1.5 kilometres east of Arras. From Feuchy centre the cemetery is signposted along a track for 500 metres, followed by a more difficult track.

The village of Tilly-les-Mofflaines was taken by Commonwealth troops on 9 April 1917, but it was partly in German hands again from March to August 1918. "Houdain Lane" was a trench in the area between Tilloy and Feuchy. The cemetery was made in April 1917 by units of the 12th (Eastern), 15th (Scottish) and 37th Divisions.

Casualty Details: UK 74, Canada 2, Total Burials: 76
