Special memorials are erected to eleven soldiers from the United Kingdom believed to be buried among them.
Méaulte Military Cemetery covers an area of 1,522 square metres.
Méaulte was held by British forces (and inhabited by three quarters of its civilian population) from 1915 to March 26, 1918 when it was evacuated after a rearguard fight by the 9th (Scottish) Division. It was recaptured by the 12th (Eastern) Division and tanks on August 22, 1918.
Méaulte Military Cemetery was begun in December 1915 and used until February 1917. A few further burials were made after the recapture of the village.
After the Armistice 154 graves (mainly of 1918) were brought in from other burial grounds and from neighbouring battlefields. The 6th Queen's erected a wooden memorial in the cemetery to their officers and men who fell on August 23, 1918.
Two cemeteries of some importance were concentrated here. These were Sandpit Cemetery and Méaulte Triangle Cemetery. One other grave was brought in from Méaulte churchyard.
- Sandpit Cemetery was situated on the Albert to Bray road a little east of the village. ‘The Sandpit’ was a camp in January 1917. It was retaken by the 7th Royal Sussex on August 22, 1918. The cemetery was made by the 12th Division. It originally contained the graves of 93 UK soldiers and one Canadian airman buried between August 22 and 29, 1918
- Méaulte Triangle Cemetery was situated between a road junction and a light railway crossing on the Morlancourt Road. It was made by the III Corps Heavy Artillery and the 12th Division. It contained the graves of 36 soldiers from the UK buried between August 23 and 25, 1918
Méaulte Military Cemetery is south of Méaulte on the west side of the road to Etinehem
