What were the approximate measurements of trenches in World War 1?
Roughly how deep/wide were the British, German or French trenches in WW1, also how wide was 'No-Mans Land'? If you have any other measurements relating to WW1 trenches they would also be very helpful as i have to draw a to-scale birdseye view and cross section of a World War 1 trench battlefeild for a school assignment, Thanks
For a cross-section and birds-eye view go to - World War 1 Trench Cross Section http://www.bideford.devon.sch.uk/history/ww1/trench.html Front line trenches These were usually about seven feet deep and about six feet wide. The Allies were forced to dig their trenches in lower ground so they were often waterlogged. They had a zigzag pattern to prevent the enemy from shooting straight down the line. Sandbags were put on both sides of the top of the trench to absorb enemy bullets. Lines of barbed wire protected the frontline trench from any enemy attacks. Fire step This was cut into the side of the trench and allowed the soldiers to peer over the side of the trench towards the enemy. It was where the sentries stood or the whole unit when they were on 'standing-to' duty which meant that they were waiting for a possible enemy attack. No-Man's Land The land that separated the Allies and the German trenches was a wasteland of craters, blackened tree stumps and the occasional shell of a building. It was normally around 250 yards but could vary between 7 yards at Zonnebeke to 500 yards at Cambrai. Communications trenches Linking the front-line trench to the support and reserve trenches. They allowed the movement of men, equipment and supplies and were also used to take the wounded back to the Casualty Clearing Stations.
