The cemetery grounds were assigned to the United Kingdom in perpetuity by King Albert I of Belgium in recognition of the sacrifices made by the British Empire in the defence and liberation of Belgium during the war.[1] FoundationThe cemetery was begun in November 1914 by the French Chasseurs Alpins. British burials began in February 1915.[2] The cemetery closed in November 1916, [3] with the French graves being removed after the armistice.[4]The cemetery was designed by W H Cowlishaw.[4] References1. ^First World War, accessed 19 August 2006 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wo1.be/eng/database/dbDetail.asp?TypeID=6&SubTypeID=19&ItemID=5692|title=Wereldoorlog I in de Westhoek – Blauwepoort Farm Cemetery|publisher=www.wo1.be|accessdate=2008-05-04|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927230910/http://www.wo1.be/eng/database/dbDetail.asp?TypeID=6&SubTypeID=19&ItemID=5692|archivedate=2011-09-27|df=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://ww1cemeteries.com/ww1cemeteries/blauwepoortfarmcemetery.htm|title=BLAUWEPOORT FARM CEMETERY|publisher=ww1cemeteries.com|accessdate=2008-05-04}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/51401|title=CWGC :: Cemetery Details|publisher=www.cwgc.org|accessdate=2008-05-04|last=|first=}} External links
