CANONNE FARM BRITISH CEMETERY, SOMMAING Nord, France

Sommaing is a village a little north of the Chaussee Brune-haut which runs from Cambrai to Villers Pol. Ferme Canonne is on the north side of the Chaussee, where it crosses the road from Verchainto Haussy; and the British Cemetery is nearly 1 kilometre north-east of the farm, on the Haussy-Sommaing road.
