Bridge House Cemetery

Named after the farmhouse that stood on the spot, the cemetery was begun by the 59th (North Midland) Division at the end of September 1917 during the Battle of Polygon Wood and used until October. It contains 45 First World War burials, a plot small enough to have been made and closed within a few weeks of fighting.
