Twelve Tree Copse Cemetery and NZ Memorial
TWELVE TREE COPSE CEMETERY (3359 burials) and MEMORIAL (179 names) recall a stand of pines named by men of the 86th and 87th Brigades. The copse was used as a forward observation post for the artillery but was later destroyed by shellfire. The memorial within the cemetery commemorates New Zealand soldiers who died in the second battle of Krithia and during the fighting on the Helles Front in July and whose graves are unknown.
