Welcome to this latest episode of the podcast.

Today, we walk the battlefield around the area of the Hohenzollern Redoubt, the formidable German strongpoint located on the battlefield at Loos, which was attacked by the 9th Scottish Division on the opening day of the battle of 25th September 1915.  Fighting continued until the middle of October when men of the 46th Midland Division tried and failed to retake the redoubt.

What happened here, and what can be seen when you walk the battlefields today?  

Supporting maps and the walking route can be found in the gallery section of the website: https://footstepsofthefallen.com/gallery/
