I've been traveling the battlefield for years now and have never really walked around the wood. If you get a chance I recommend you do each pathway leads up another avenue of history

Very nice setting within Delville Woods. The fort is a mini-replica of the fort in Capetown and has a wealth of stories and information inside in spacious areas.Behind the museum is the "last tree standing" and to the left of the museum in the woods there is some evidence of the old trenches.

Being South African, this memorial had special significance for us. The memorial is set on a beautiful site with oak trees lining the way to the main memorial site. The museum in the visitor centre is excellent, with lots of information on South Africa's role in both World Wars. There is one section that describes the battle at Delville Woods through various quotes from the few survivors. You leave with a good understanding of what the soldiers went through. It is a harrowing feeling. One of the most interesting memorials in Somme.

South Africa's memorial to their lost and missing military. Very interesting visitor centre, very well kept gardens and woods.

This is another one of the stops on the "Circuit du Souvenir". Unfortunately the museum was closed when we were there but the cemetary is beautifully kept and it is mind-boggling to think so many men from so far away gave thier lives in France.

Our visit to the South African Memorial impressed everyone with its beautiful architecture and the marble floors. At the Delville Wood Cemetery we laid crosses laid crosses on the grave of Serjeant Albert GILL, VC of the KRRC and our bugler sounded Last Post & Reveille.

Impressive visitor centre, well kept. Worth a visitNot sure if wheelchair access would be good, as it's mostly grassy areas up to the monument and visitor centre

Be warned, the interior of the War Memorial is now closed to visitors on Mondays - other than that, opening hours are 10.00 to 18.00 hours daily. There's a good car park but the Information Centre is shut now - the men's toilets were open but the women's were shut ... how weird is that? This all goes to make this particular area of the site feel quite forlorn. There is a short walk from the car park, along the roadside shingled-verge to the entrance gate - from there is a fair walk on grass before you reach the Memorial itself, which is in view all the time. On a previous visit, we went inside the Memorial and I can say it is excellent - so it is worth visiting any day other than a Monday. I suppose the 'up-side' to visiting on a Monday is there probably isn't the same numbers of people visiting and that means you can walk among the Delville Wood trees and 'lose yourself' in the peace of the moment - which is something that wasn't happening 98 years ago!!
