Gorre British and Indian Cemetery is a cemetery in Gorre, France. It contains the graves of over 900 Commonwealth soldiers who died in the First World War. The cemetery was designed by Charles Holden and is maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Gorre Castle was occupied early in the war by troops serving with the British Expeditionary Force and the Indian Corps, and the burial ground, located in the south-east corner of the original castle grounds, was begun in the autumn of 1914. The Indian section of the cemetery was closed in October 1915, shortly before the Indian infantry divisions left France for redeployment to the Middle East. Many of those now buried in Plots V and VI of the British section of the cemetery were killed during the Battle of Estaires in April 1918.

This Spanish mill was built around 1635, on the banks of the Lacquette River. It produced flour until 1938, then milling for livestock. It was bought in 1974 to be transformed into a home. It is built with brick and stone (white limestone). All that remains of the original building is the north gable (17th century), and also a porch. The water wheel is still in place but it no longer turns. The dam forms a pretty waterfall. A turret was added on the river side. It is a very beautiful private home with a beautiful garden in which you can see a stone fountain.
