La Neuville British Cemetery, located near Corbie in the Somme region of France, was designed by renowned British architect Edwin Lutyens and established in 1916. Maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, it stands as one of numerous cemeteries built to honor soldiers who died during the First World War's devastating campaigns in northern France. Lutyens, who designed many of the war's most significant memorial landscapes, shaped this cemetery according to the architectural principles that became hallmarks of Commonwealth war grave design.
