Sunday 19th
August 1917
Again there has been no rain today, though it has been
cloudy. Today 48th (South Midland) Division has made a determined attack,
assisted by a number of tanks. They have taken four strongpoints which had held
up their attack on Thursday - Hillock Farm, Maison du Hibou, Triangle Farm and
Cockcroft. The enemy is thought to have taken very heavy casualties and all
four tanks are reported to have returned from the fight.
