The village of Bucquoy was occupied by the 7th Division on 17 March 1917, and was the scene of very heavy fighting in March and April 1918. Bucquoy Communal Cemetery was used by the Germans in 1914-16, but these graves, and those of nine Commonwealth soldiers buried by the Germans and 25 buried by the Royal Naval Division in August 1918 have been removed to other cemeteries. All ten Commonwealth burials of the First World War that remain in the communal cemetery date from August 1918.
