In Mesen, 5km/3miles beyond Kemmel, there are several war cemeteries. The elevated ground north, between Mesen and Wijtschate, was taken by the British in 1917 by massive mine blasting. One of the largest mine craters of that battle, Lone Tree Crater, today a small lake, is preserved as a memorial (Pool of Peace).
