The Royal Engineers Grave at Railway Wood is a thought provoking place to visit. It commemorates 12 soldiers who died in tunnelling operations in the area and whose bodies were never recovered. It is a good place on top of the hill to view Ypres and the surrounding area it is a good idea to read some history of the area before visiting. Parking is limited and it is a short walk to the memorial.

Visited here in earl April 2016. Only one there, a stark reminder of the dangers of tunneling, and obvious signs around of war - quite a few small craters. Interesting to see the tops of old Rum jars being used to join wires together!
Great War Cemetery. In the near vicinity are located the memorial stone to the Liverpool Scottish, and 3 craters formed during the battles.
Great view west over the fields towards Ypres, shows the advantage of the high ground. Marks the site of 12 tunnellers killed underground in WW1.
Een minder bekend punt, waar de littekens van de strijd nog steeds zichtbaar zijn
