Image description

‘Knocked out. A nest of Hun machine-guns which held up our advance at Monchy, Battle of Arras’, 1917. Stereoscopic photograph, World War One, Western Front, 1917. The village of Monchy-le-Preux, near Arras in Northern France, was built on high ground. This gave a strategic advantage to the occupying German force. However, on 11 April 1917, during a snow storm, the British 37th Division attacked and secured the village. Despite numerous counter-attacks, Monchy-le-Preux was retained by the Allies until the German Spring Offensive in March 1918. From a collection of 101 stereoscopic photographs entitled ‘The Great War’.
