EDITORS COMMENTS
This collection of trench maps belonged to 2903 Sergeant Ernest Blaikley of the 28th Battalion London Regiment (Artists Rifles). Ernest served as an Attached Staff Officer and Instructor at the Sniping, Observation and Scouting School in Linghem, Hesdin, and Senlis during World War I. The maps provide insight into the complex network of trenches and fortifications in the Arras and Albert regions of France. The first map, Sheet 51C, 1/40,000, First Edition, covers the Arras and Albert area, providing a comprehensive overview of the battlefield. The second pair of maps, 36 NE and 36a SW, offer more detailed views of specific areas, likely used for targeted reconnaissance and planning. The final map, 1/10,000, dated January 1917, focuses on the area around Auchy-la-Bassée and Hulluch, providing a precise and up-to-date representation of the battlefield at a critical time in the war. The Plan de la ville, Arras, further illustrates the importance of detailed mapping during this period. These maps would have been essential tools for Ernest and his students as they honed their skills in sniping, observation, and scouting, contributing to the Allied war effort in the trenches of France.
