The 1st of July 1916 saw the "big push" on The Somme. Thiepval Wood was the jump off point for the 36th Ulster Division.
90 Years on Thiepval Wood, now owned by The Somme Association, has seen a team of archaeologists excavating and restoring some small sections of the extensive trench system in the wood.
This DVD, released for the official opening of the wood for guided tours on the 1st of July 2006, follows the Community Archeology Project, undertaken by The Somme Association and No Man's Land, The European Group for Great War Archaeology.
