V1 Rocket Lauch sit. Bois Des Huit Rue France

Huit Rues is situated just to the south-east of Hazebrouck between Morbecque and Wallon-Cappel along the D 138 Road. From Wallon-Cappel turn off at the large roundabout and follow the signs for Morbecque. Coming from the other direction Huit Rues is sign posted in Morbecque but it is a street tucked between houses and easily missed.
There is a large parking area with a descriptive panel explaining the site and its history.
To carry out the planned V-1 "flying bomb" attacks on the United Kingdom, Germany built a number of military installations including launching sites and depots. Some of the installations were huge concrete fortifications

Many thanks, was a shame the weather wasn't great and I couldn't have done more for the time I was over.
