>>11369427Vimy Ridge has preserved sections of trenches, as well as parts of the tunnel system built up by the Canadians ahead of their assault on the ridge. When we visited they had just uncovered an unexploded Boche shell that had buried deep into the ground and was poking through the roof of a collapsed tunnel that was being restored. Rather chilling in hindsight; they have to mow the grass on certain areas of the ridge by non-standard means (aka having local sheep herds graze it down) due to the sheer volume of explosive that was poured into it and without a doubt still contains a number of unexploded munitions.
