LORIENT (KERENTRECH) COMMUNAL CEMETERY Morbihan, France

Lorient is a town, seaport and naval base, with Government dockyards and an arsenal, on the southern side of the Brittany peninsula.

From the town centre, look for Avenue Du Gen. DeGaulle straight to the roundabout. Take the first exit into Bd. Edouard Herriot, straight on along Bd. Leon Blum, and the LORIENT (KERENTRECH) COMMUNAL CEMETERY lies on the left hand side of the road before the junction with Bd. Emmanuel Svob. The CWGC plot is at the bottom left of the cemetery.

The CWGC signpost is on the cemetery wall.
