The Mémorial à la 18e Division britannique consists of a stone obelisk with bronze plaques on each side. These plaques commemorate the officers, non-commissioned officers and men of the division and record the battles in which the division fought. Interestingly, the 18th British Division played a crucial role in the Battle of the Somme, suffering significant losses but making important territorial gains.

Located north of the village, the Mailly-Maillet Communal Cemetery Extension contains 126 graves of men who died, mostly between August 11, 1915, and December 2, 1916: 122 British, 3 New Zealanders, and 1 Canadian. While the war moved away from Mailly-Maillet for a few months after the Battle of the Somme, it returned violently to the village after Operation Michael, the first of the five German offensives of 1918, which began on March 21. Mailly-Maillet was then regularly bombarded, and the Allied troops occupying it took refuge in the catacombs beneath the village. The last soldier buried in this cemetery was a British soldier who died on 28 July 1918. Less than a month later, after a major Australian and British victory at Albert, this sector of the Somme saw the war finally recede.

The Euston Road Cemetery in Colincamps contains 1,293 graves of men killed mainly during the Battle of Serre on July 1, 1916, and the capture of Beaumont-Hamel on November 13, during the Battle of the Somme: 960 British, 4 Canadians, 26 Australians, 302 New Zealanders, and 1 Indian. During the Great War, Colincamps was a village less than 2 kilometers behind the British front lines and was regularly bombarded by German artillery. The village found itself on the front line in the spring of 1918 during the German counterattack "Michael," whose fighting on April 5, 1918, claimed many New Zealand casualties, who were buried here, defending Colincamps. Euston is a town in England, located in Suffolk. It is also the name of a railway station and an underground station in London, where there is also Euston Road. It's just another way for the British to evoke the country.

The monument to the 8th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders is a Celtic cross symbolically erected on the embankment of a sunken road, at the spot where the men of this regiment rushed to capture the village of Beaumont-Hamel on November 13, 1916, at the end of the Battle of the Somme. First, on July 1, when it was located in no man's land, exactly equidistant from the British and German trenches, and served as a refuge for so many soldiers wounded during the fighting; then, five days before the end of that same battle, when the village of Beaumont-Hamel was finally captured on November 13, by the men of the 8th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, who had rushed from that position. The 8th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders was a Scottish regiment that fought on several fronts. A reading of the inscriptions engraved on the different sides of the base of this monument tells us this. Thus, this cross is dedicated to the glory of the battalion's glorious dead and to the memory of those who will never return. Its combat losses, throughout the war, amounted to 51 officers and 831 men and non-commissioned officers, including 105 wounded officers and 2,527 men and non-commissioned officers. Finally, a Celtic inscription reveals "it is good to have friends on the day of battle." Mobilized from August 4, 1914, to November 12, 1919, a period of five years and 100 days, the regiment fought from May 1, 1915, to November 11, 1918, in Belgium and France. Until 1918, the 8th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders belonged to the 51st Division; In 1915, it fought at Richebourg, Festubert and on Thiepval Ridge, which was to leave a sad memory for the British on 1 July 1916 (this is where the memorial to the missing now stands); in 1916, it fought at the Labyrinth, Vimy Ridge, Fourcaux Wood (High Wood), Beaumont-Hamel (there, therefore) and Courcelette; in 1917, it was Roclincourt, Arras, Roeux, Ypres and Cambrai. In 1918, the 8th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders fought as part of the 61st Division at Saint-Quentin, Holnon Wood, Villéveque, Nesle, Villers-Bretonneux and on the Lys; but also within the 15th division which distinguished itself at Soissons, at Buzancy and in the final advance which would lead to the armistice
