Summary
| Description |
English: Plan of the mine at Peckham, part of the mines placed by the tunnelling companies of the Royal Engineers in the Battle of Messines (1917). This drawing is based on the plans published in Roger Lampaert, De Mijnenoorlog in Vlaanderen 1914–1918, Roesbrugge/Belgium (Drukkerij Schoonaert) 1989 and Peter Barton/Peter Doyle/Johan Vandewalle, Beneath Flanders Fields: The Tunnellers' War 1914-1918, Staplehurst (Spellmount) 2005. Of the two mines, only Peckham 1 was eventually fired in the Battle of Messines; the Peckham 2 mine was completed but had to be abandoned before the battle after the tunnel flooded. |
