Pozières British Cemetery is enclosed within the boundary wall incorporating the Pozières Memorial to the Missing of 1918.

Burials made during 1916, 1917 and 1918 are contained in Plot II and these were made at that time by the fighting units or field ambulances in position here near Pozières.

All other graves were brought to this cemetery after the Armistice in November 1918. Most of the graves were brought here from battlefield burials in the vicinity of this cemetery. Most of these casualties were British and Commonwealth soldiers who were killed in the surrounding fields during the autumn battles of the 1916 Battle of the Somme. Some were casualties discovered in isolated burial plots and small cemeteries from the fighting in August 1918.

There are now 2,758 Commonwealth servicemen buried or commemorated in this cemetery. 1,380 of the burials are unidentified but there are special memorials to 23 casualties known or believed to be buried among them. There is also one German soldier buried here.

"Had a lovely stay with friends and my partner . The host could not be more helpful. We sent cases there before hand and sending back with help from the host. The accommodation was clean and good. The grounds and pool were clean and amazing and you were free to walk around very secluded. Near Arras 10 mins drive away. Would recommend for friends and families also . A top class stay."

"Beautiful, spacious bright loft! The perfect stay for our few days exploring the countryside. Functional kitchen with all the items needed to cook at home. Perfect blackout blinds to help combat jetlag. Seamless check-in and checkout of the cottage! Thanks so much!"

"Beautiful and unique property with lovely decor and modern kitchen and bathrooms. We enjoyed walking around the village as well. Stairs made me nervous for my elderly father, but he did fine."

"This is the second time we have brought friends and stayed at The Cottage. It is ideally placed for visiting the WW1 battlefields and Albert. It was very clean, warm and comfortable with everything we needed. Anne is a very good host, was ready to help with our stay and without hesitation, I recommend this property."

"Very good overall. Needs a little TLC (touch love and care). Also you will not get an answer if you send an email. My room was nice with a great view. Breakfast was fine too. I will come back "
