Gommecourt Wood is right of centre and Gommecourt in the centre. 

The 46th (North Midland) Division attacked the German positions along the edge of Gommecourt Wood from trenches which ran across the fields in the foreground. 

Many of the Midlanders killed in the attack are buried in Gommecourt Wood New Cemetery which can be discerned to the left of Gommecourt village.
