LES GONARDS CEMETERY (VERSAILLES) Yvelines, France
From the A13 in the direction of Paris from Normandy take the Versailles Ouest exit off the motorway and turn right down the N186 towards the Chateau of Versailles.
If leaving Paris on the A13 take the Versailles Centre exit. Follow the N186 round a bend where it becomes Boulevarde St Antoine.
At the Memorial roundabout turn right and continue up the side of the Chateau, along the Boulevarde du Roi. At the Chateau follow the road round until reaching traffic lights and turn right then immediately left into Avenue de Paris. Take the second road on the right just past the Hotel de Ville and continue along the road past the railway station to traffic lights under a railway bridge. Turn hard right as you pass under the bridge.
LES GONARDS CEMETERY is on the left hand side of the road. The CWGC plot is at the rear of the cemetery on the right straight up from the entrance. There are no CWGC signposts although there is a CWGC plaque at the cemetery entrance.
