PLOUGASNOU COMMUNAL CEMETERY Finistere, France

Plougasnou is a village and commune 14 kilometres north-north-east of Morlaix, on the main road to the coast. There is a railway station in the village on a branch line from Morlaix and the service is reasonably frequent. Taxis are also available at Morlaix, which is on the Paris-Le Mans-St. Brieuc-Brest line. The cemetery is west of the village church, South-south-east of the monument. Opposite the entrance, towards the rear of the cemetery, are the graves of six airmen of the Royal Air Force and two men of the Royal Canadian Navy, one of whom is not identified. Six of the graves are on the right of the path and two on the left.
