Dartmoor Cemetery covers an area of 5,078 square yards and was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens.
Dartmoor Cemetery was begun (as Becordel-Becourt Military Cemetery) in August 1915, and was used by the Battalions holding that part of the line. In May 1916 its name was changed at the request of the 8th and 9th Battalions of the Devonshire Regiment. In September 1916, the XV Corps Main Dressing Station was established in the neighbourhood.
There are two other memorials in Dartmoor Cemetery. One erected by the New Zealand Division to their officers and men who fell near Flers in September and October 1916, and another by the 100th Machine Gun Company to record their losses in July, 1916.
