BRAS VILLAGE. FRENCH CEMETERY. POIVRE HILL IN BACKGROUND

At the entrance to Bras, on the left, there is a large French military cemetery (photo above). In the village, completely ruined, turn to the left into G.C. 38, which soon crosses the Est Canal and then the Meuse (on the right, under the ruined bridge: fortifications and shelters). Charny, about one mile from Bras, is next reached.

G.C. 38 crosses the ruins of this village (level-crossing on leaving), then turns to the right, leaving the Thierville road opposite.

The road goes round the Heights of Vacherauville and Marre Forts, then enters the almost entirely ruined village of Marre (about three miles from Charny). Turn to the left at the first houses, pass in front of the ruined church, then turn to the right, leaving the Bourrus Woods road opposite. Follow the railway.
