The Noeux-les-Mines Communal Cemetery Commonwealth Plot, situated in Pas-de-Calais in northern France, is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission–maintained cemetery established in 1915. Designed by architect John Reginald Truelove and the renowned Edwin Lutyens, the cemetery represents the careful commemoration of British and Commonwealth war dead from the First World War. As a sector within the larger communal cemetery, it reflects the architectural and horticultural principles that Lutyens brought to numerous war memorials and burial grounds across Europe during and after the Great War.
