The following is from a book written by Major A.F BECKE
A description of the battlefield around Audencourt has been furnished by an Artillery Officer (Lt Armitage) who was wounded and captured at Ligny. He was removed in September through Audencourt to a German hospital at Bethencourt. South of the village of Audencourt and in a field to the west of the road he saw some 18pdr Guns (probably the Guns abandoned by 6 RFA)
An unlimbered Gun proved that the Battery had been in position facing roughly North and large piles of empty cases showed where the Guns had stood.
One Gun was half way from the position to the gate leading to the road, another was limbered up in the gate and stood there with the team, all black horses lying dead in front of it.
Further on in the village itself, was a medley of water carts, cable carts and general service limbered wagons, each lying by the roadside with the horses or mules dead in the shafts.
At the northern end of the village were four machine guns, their detachments and Officers lying Dead beside them, one of the guns was painted in blotches of various colours. (Probably the machine Guns of the 2/R Scots and 1/Gordon Highlanders
8th Infantry Brigade.
