Villers-Faucon Communal Cemetery is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery located in the Somme region of France, established in 1917 during the First World War. Designed by Herbert Baker, the renowned architect who created several war cemeteries and memorials, the cemetery reflects the careful, dignified approach to commemoration that Baker brought to his work for the CWGC. The cemetery's establishment in 1917 places it among the burial grounds created in the immediate aftermath of the war's most devastating campaigns on the Western Front.
