The Battlefields of Artois – Top 5 Locations

If you live in the southeast of England, you may be visiting Artois or the city of Arras as part of a day-trip or as the cultural quotient of a "booze-run". For these visitors I have highlighted five locations, which I believe are “must-sees” for those with limited time. They are:
