Interesting facts about this location
Hawthorn Ridge Redoubt
Hawthorn Ridge Redoubt was a German front-line fortification west of the village of Beaumont Hamel on the Somme. It was the scene of a number of costly attacks by British infantry during the Battle of the Somme in 1916. It was also the site of one of the most famous pieces of film footage of World War I when the Hawthorn Ridge mine was detonated beneath the redoubt at 7:20 am on 1 July 1916, the first day on the Somme.

Ulster Tower
The Ulster Tower is a memorial to the men of the 36th (Ulster) Division. The memorial was officially opened on November 19, 1921 and is a very close copy of Helen's Tower which stands in the grounds of the Clandeboye Estate, near Bangor, County Down in Northern Ireland. Many of the men of the Ulster Division trained in the estate before moving to England and then France early in 1916. The tower (plus a small cafe nearby) is staffed by members of the Somme Association, which is based in Belfast.

Battle of the Ancre
The Battle of the Ancre 13–18 November, was the final large British attack of the Battle of the Somme in 1916, before the winter weather forced a pause in British attacks until the new year. It was fought by the Fifth Army, under the command of Lieutenant General Hubert Gough, against the German First Army under General von Below. The intent of the British attack was to fulfill complementary objectives.
