Australian Road to Passchendaele Marker Stone

The Third Battle of Ypres, generally referred to as Passchendaele began on 31 July 1917 and staggered on in dreadful weather conditions until it floundered in mud and resulted in some 300, 000 casualties. This area, just above the Tyne Cot CWGC Cemetery, was taken by the Australians on 4 October 1917. The Marker, on The Australian Trail, is one of a number of stones that mark the Australians progress around the battlefield
