Redoubt Cemetery is on
the west side of the Krithia-Seddel Bahr road, south-west of
"The Vineyards", 100 metres along a track flanked by pine
trees. It faces south to the entrance of the Dardanelles.
Redoubt Cemetery takes its name from the
chain of forts made by the Turks across the southern end of
the peninsula in the fighting for Krithia and the Redoubt
Line on which the advance halted in May. The cemetery was
begun by the 2nd Australian Infantry Brigade in May 1915 and
continued in use until the evacuation. It was greatly
increased after the Armistice when the battlefields were
cleared and graves were brought in from small cemeteries in
the vicinity. |
