The Farm Commonwealth War Graves Commission Cemetery

The Farm Cemetery is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. It contains some of soldiers killed during World War I during the battles at Gallipoli. This was an eight-month campaign fought by Commonwealth and French forces against Turkish forces in an attempt to force Turkey out of the war, to relieve the deadlock of the Western Front (France/Belgium) and to open a supply route to Russia through the Dardanelles and the Black Sea.

The Turks referred to a small stone shepherd's hut on the western slopes of the Chunuk Bair ridge as Aghyl (sheepfold), whilst the Allied troops called it The Farm. The position was captured by Allied troops on 6 August 1915 at the start of the battle of Chunuk Bair but lost on 10 August in the overwhelming Turkish counter-attack which pushed the Allies back off the ridge brought the battle to a close.

The cemetery was constructed after the Armistice from remains recovered from the surrounding area. Special memorials commemorate seven soldiers believed to be amongst its 645 unidentified burials.
