The Cemetery is in the northern outskirts of the village, 91 metres west of the Arras road, in the valley of the Cojeul. Visitors should take the D919 Arras to Bucquoy road. In the centre of Ayette a CWGC signpost will be seen. At the end of the village take the left fork towards Ablainzeville (D7). The cemetery is set back off the road, next to a farm, and at about 100 metres along this road a further CWGC signpost indicates the access path to the cemetery along a farm track. On leaving the site, visitors can either reverse back down the farm track or drive straight ahead to get back to the village of Ayette. It should be noted that vehicle access is difficult along the farm track during wet conditions.” Holt p132
