In the background of this picture we can see part of the Grovetown Casualty Clearing Station being built on the Somme, before the start of the battle of the Somme. The framework of a sizable building has been completed, and awaits its walls and roof.
Many thanks to Pen & Sword for providing us with these pictures, which come from Richard van Emden's The Somme: The Epic Battle in the Soldier's own Words and Photographs
