Another very large war cemetery is found at la Tagette. This is La Targette French Cemetery which dwarfs the smaller British Cemetery to its immediate right. The French cemetery is also extremely regular in its layout, with the lines of crosses symmetrical and forming interesting patterns as you walk amongst them. Although the vast majority are crosses, there are some headstones more similar to the shapes found in British cemeteries, particularly in the back right corner
