LAVENTIE CHURCH, RUINED BY THE BOMBARDMENTS
After several turnings the road runs past a small ruined chapel, crosses a river, then turns to the right, and crosses the Lys. At the first houses of Estaires, 100 yards beyond the bridge, turn to the left, amid the ruins.
Pass the ruined gasworks and follow the main street shown in the photo below. In the middle ground of this photograph are seen the walls of the church, the steeple of which has fallen in.
ALL THAT REMAINS OF THE MAIN STREET OF ESTAIRES
MERVILLE (from old engraving)
Leave on the left the Square, in which formerly stood the Hôtel-de-Ville; its ruined belfry is now a mere heap of bricks and stones.
