Cemetery Location

The cemetery is reached from Bayeux War Cemetery by taking the ring-road in the direction of Caen. At the Eisnehower roundabout go straight across and at the next set of traffic lights turn right, and right again onto a parking area in front of the church on your right. You will see a green CWGC plaque at the entrance; go through the gates and go to the far corner of the cemetery where the five wargraves are.
