The cemetery contains 1,005 commonwealth war graves and 132 German war graves.[1] HistoryThe majority of the soldiers interred in the cemetery were killed in late June and July 1944 as the Allies pushed south of Bayeux and then south-west to encircle Caen. Many casualties were involved in fighting around Tilly-sur-Seulles. Two brigadiers are interred in the cemetery; John Roland Mackintosh-Walker of the Seaforth Highlanders and James Hargest from the Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment. LocationThe cemetery is 14 km south-east of Bayeux, between Hottot-les-Bagues and Juvigny-sur-Seulles on the D.9 road. See also
