Hagle Dump Cemetery is a British military cemetery for the war dead of the First World War, located in the Belgian village of Elverdinge, a sub-municipality of Ypres. It is situated 3,250 km southwest of the village centre. The cemetery was designed by Reginald Blomfield with the assistance of Arthur Hutton and is maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. The site is rectangular in shape with a bevelled corner and is surrounded by a brick wall. The area is 1,800 m². The Cross of Sacrifice is at the front, near the entrance.

Hagle Dump Cemetery was a landfill/storage site located a few kilometers from Elverdinge. Hagle Dump Cemetery was inaugurated in April 1918, during the German Spring Offensive. After the armistice, the cemetery was expanded with a group of graves (lots III and IV). At the start, 26 Americans and 2 French soldiers were also buried here. Later, the Americans were excavated again and transferred to the American cemetery in Waregem. the French were buried elsewhere in Flemish fields.
Today 297 Commonwealth servicemen rest here.
