We are pleased to launch the website for the La Boisselle Study Group. As you will no doubt have already seen, we are a group of military historians who have been given a unique opportunity to conduct a detailed historical and archaeological study into one of the most symbolic areas of preserved battlefield still extant on the western front. Tomorrow will see the BBC covering the project on BBC Breakfast, News 24 and on their website. We will publish links and further details as they are online. In the meantime please have a good look around our site. We will add more as we continue so please check back regularly.
Thanks for your interest.
