Mesnil-St. Laurent is a village and commune some 3 miles (5 kilometres) south-east of St. Quentin on the D.12 road from that town to Ribemont. The nearest railway station is St. Quentin, which has good road and rail connections with Paris and the towns in northern France. Taxis are available to supplement the bus service to Mesnil-St. Laurent, which is poor. In the churchyard, in the south-western corner, are the graves of two airmen of the Royal Canadian Air Force.
