Hiking

Continue walking towards the park. Turn left over the bridge, into the vast event meadow. (9) Many bodies have been excavated here. Laborer Alfred O'Brien and prospector James Pryke serve in the same unit. They both died on October 4, 1917 and were buried together in the field. After the war, their bodies will be transferred to Buttes New British Cemetery, Plot 28, Row A, Graves 16 and 18.
