Artillery Wood Cemetery, near Boezinge, Belgium, is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery from the First World War.
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.
The cemetery was designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield.
The cemetery was established in 1917 after fighting in the immediate area â the Battle of Pilckem Ridge â had moved away and was used for burials until March 1918.
At the point of the Armistice there were some 141 graves in the cemetery. Concentration from the battlefields and three smaller cemeteries (Boesinghe Chateau Grounds, Brissein House and Captain's Farm) enlarged this to the present 1,307.
The following list is compiled from the 801 identified casualties in Artillery Wood Cemetery with Imperial Units in bold:
