The Cemetery is 1
kilometre west of Sedd el Bahr village. It stands on a small
ridge named Karaja Oghul Tepe, 110 metres above the sea and
overlooking "W" Beach.
The
greater part of the cemetery (Rows A to J and part of Row L)
was made between the landing in April 1915 and the
evacuation of the peninsula in January 1916. Row I contains
the graves of over 80 men of the 1st Lancashire Fusiliers
who died in the first two days following the landing. The 97
graves in Row K and graves 31 to 83 in Row L were brought
from islands of the Aegean after the Armistice. |
