PLOUESCAT COMMUNAL CEMETERY Finistere, France
Take the Morlaix to Brest road, D58, and take the exit for Plouescat, D10. Head towards the town centre until a small square (where parking is permitted), with a hotel in the corner, is reached. The Communal Cemetery adjoins the Square with just a small road in between. The CWGC plot lies on the left hand side of the entrance.
