The British Royal Naval Division Memorial in Beaucourt-sur-l'Ancre commemorates the officers and men of the Royal Naval Division who died during the Battle of the Ancre, part of the great Somme offensive. The memorial is located on Rue d'Hamel (Route D50) and Chemin de Serres les Pusieux.

An interesting anecdote is that the Royal Naval Division was originally formed from reservists of the British Navy who had no place on ships during the war. This unit was trained as infantry and played a crucial role in several battles, including the Battle of the Ancre.
