CIMETIÈRE BRITANNIQUE DE HOUCHIN Pas de Calais, France
Houchin est un village du département du Pas-de-Calais situé entre Barlin et Béthune, à 5 kilomètres environ au sud de Béthune. Le cimetière britannique de Houchin se trouve sur une terre agricole, du côté sud-ouest de Houchin.
On se rend au cimetière britannique de Houchin par un chemin de ferme qui débouche sur la route de Houchin à Hallicourt (D72). Il y a des panneaux de la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth dans le village de Houchin ainsi que sur la route principale D72.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
