ORANGE HILL CEMETERY

Feuchy

Pas de Calais

France 

 

General Directions: Orange Hill Cemetery lies due north of Tilloy les Mofflaines, a village in the Pas-de-Calais Department of France, and 3 kilometres south-east of Arras along the D939 road. From Tilloy les Mofflaines, take the D939 towards Cambrai until you come to a roundabout with a junction for the D37 towards Feuchy. Follow this road for 2 kilometres, then take a track to the east towards the cemetery.

Feuchy was captured by the 15th (Scottish) Division on 9 April 1917, lost at the end of March 1918, and retaken at the end of the following August. 'Orange Hill' was reached by the 12th Division on 10 April 1917. The cemetery, however, was made by the Canadian Corps after the hill was taken for the second time at the end of August 1918.

Casualty Details: UK 1, Canada 42, Total Burials: 43
