Miraumont is a small village in the Somme department, in the Hauts-de-France region, which occupies a historically and geographically special place. It is situated in a narrow valley at the source of the Ancre River, a tributary of the Somme, and is surrounded by gently rolling hills that were once the scene of fierce fighting during the First World War. During the Battle of the Somme in 1916, Miraumont was close to the front line and was badly hit. Today it is a quiet rural commune of around 630 inhabitants, where the past is still palpable in the surroundings and in nearby military cemeteries. Its proximity to other historic sites such as Thiepval and Beaumont-Hamel makes it a worthwhile stop for those wishing to explore the region's wartime past.

Grove Town Cemetery in Méaulte contains 1,392 graves: 1,365 British, 12 Canadian, 14 Australian, and 1 New Zealander. In September 1916, during the Battle of the Somme, two dressing stations were established at this site, which was known to the troops as Grove Town (grove = grove / town = town), where those who did not survive their wounds were buried until April 1917. In August and September 1918, following the victorious Allied counteroffensive, other bodies were also buried in this cemetery.

The Méaulte Military Cemetery was built in December 1915 and was in use until February 1917, although after the fighting of 1918 and the armistice, more bodies were buried there. It contains 312 graves (303 British, 2 Canadian, 1 Australian, and 6 Indian), including 21 unidentified bodies. The village of Méaulte was occupied by the British from 1915 until March 26, 1918, when it was captured by the Germans. It was finally liberated by the British 12th Division, supported by tanks, on August 22, 2018.

Inaugurated in 1930 at a location known as Red Cross Corner, the Pozières Memorial comprises a cemetery with 2,756 graves (1,828 British, 708 Australian, 219 Canadian, and 1 German), including 1,374 unidentified, as well as a memorial commemorating 14,649 victims (14,328 British and 321 South African) who have no known grave, who fell during the German counterattack of March 1918. Their names are engraved on the walls surrounding it. Pozières was attacked on July 23, 1916, by the 1st Australian Division and the 48th (South Midland) Division, and was captured the following day. It was lost on March 24 and 25, 1918, during the major German advance, and recaptured by the 17th Division on August 24. Quote on the entrance pediment: "In memory of the officers and men of the 5th and 4th Armies who fought on the battlefields of the Somme between March 21 and August 7, 1918, and of those of their dead who have no known grave"
