The Ypres Salient – Top 5 Locations

If you live in the southeast of England, you may be visiting Ieper 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:

Core Location 2 – Cloth Hall and "In Flanders Fields" Museum, Ieper Core Location 4 – Essex Farm ADS and CWGC Cemetery
