About

The Cemetery of Boussu is a municipal cemetery in the Belgian municipality of Boussu. The cemetery is located on the Rue Delmée et Renard, 470 m southwest of the city center. The cemetery has an elongated shape and is surrounded by a brick wall. An extension was built on the northern edge. The cemetery is closed by a double gate between two cast iron columns. Against the west wall is a large crucifix in an open chapel.

To the right of the central path lies a perk with 4 British military graves from the First World War. A fifth grave is just down the road. The military died between March 1918 and February 1919. The tombs are maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission where they are registered under Boussu Communal Cemetery.
