    French WW1 training trenches.

    Here are a number pics of some WW1 training trenches.
    They are 10 km from my house near Bellac in Franceicon, hidden in the woods, not many people know about then.
    I only found out when the Maire gave us the ok to set up a shooting range as it has a very high back stop.
    I last visited them 4/5 yrs ago, a few more trees are now down,
    They extend over 3000 squ meters in the shape of a wedge.
    Would love to restorm them, and for the same reason we did nor build a range, the felling of the treas, but it would keep me in heating fuel for tens of years if we did.
