Villers-Guislain is a village in the Department of the Nord, 2 kilometres south of the main road from Cambrai to Peronne. The cemetery is about 1.5 kilometres south of the village, on the north side of a shallow valley.
There are CWGC signs from the village. Be prepared that after Villers Hill British Cemetery the track becomes a little rough.
As you come down the hill you will also see Meath Cemetery to your right - which you can reach - and others in front of you - which you cannot via this particular farm track.
Targelle Ravine British Cemetery was made in September and October, 1918. There are now over 100, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, a small number are unidentified.
Rows of Highlanders
A large number belonged to the 9th Highland Light Infantry (Glasgow Highlanders). The cemetery covers an area of 348 square metres and is enclosed by a low rubble wall.
