GERMAN LIMBER ON TROCY PLATEAU
GATE OF TROCY
Rounding the horse-pond, we take the road which runs under the monumental gateway, a view of which is given above.
This gate is one of the chief remains of the fortifications which guarded Trocy in the Middle Ages.
It will be seen that the strategic importance of the position has at all times been appreciated at its full value.
Having passed through the gate, we take, 100 yards further on to the left, the road that dips into a hollow, on the opposite slope of which stands out the fine farm of Beauvoir.
We reach this farm by a zig-zag ascent which comes out on the Route Nationale (N. 36). We then turn to the right and go down towards Gué-à-Tresmes.
