"Yorkshire trench" WW I related Tip by Dabs

If you are interested in seeing one of the trenches from WWI, the Yorkshire trench is a reconstructed British trench located at the original spot. You can walk down into the trenches for an idea what it was like to be inside the confined and claustraphobic area that these soldiers fought in. There's no charge to see the trench.

It's is located near the village of Boezinge and was a little hard to find even with a map that we got from the tourist office. We had to get out 2 or 3 times and ask for directions, it's located on a street that is filled with industrial buildings which disappointed my husband a bit, sort of hard to imagine the battlefield with a bunch of concrete buildings surrounding it.

This website has directions and some further information on the trench.

The tourism office had a list of several other trenches that could be visited, several of them had admission fees.
