EACH year the Lancs & Yorks Historical Society organises pilgrimages to the battle areas of the First World War.
In August, then again in September of next year, we plan to visit the battlefield areas of France and Flanders, taking in The Somme and the Ypres battles, also Vimy Ridge, Loos, Arras, Serre and Le Cateau.
The trips specialise in visiting specific cemeteries or memorials on request. An experienced guide will also accompany the trips to commentate on specific battles and events.
We welcome all inquiries. Anyone interested and requiring further information should contact the address below. We ask for a medium-sized SAE for postal replies.
