FRUGES COMMUNAL CEMETERY Pas de Calais, France

Fruges is a small town in the Pas-de-Calais department of France, located half way between Bethune and Le Touquet-Paris-Plage. It is situated on the D928 road between St Omer and Hendin. The Cemetery is located by taking the road out of the town in the direction of St Omer. Turn right at the top of the hill onto the D104 towards Matrighem. The Cemetery is immediately on your right. The grave of the First World War casualty is located halfway between the entrance and the centre of the cemetery. The Second World War plots are situated at the extreme left hand front corner.
