__NOTOC__'''Lonsdale Cemetery''' is a First World War cemetery maintained by the {{gw|Commonwealth War Graves Commission}}, located near the village of [[Authuille]], three miles north of Albert in the Somme department of Northern France. The cemetery is situated on a gentle sloping terrain amid fields adjacent to [[Authuille Wood]], accessible by a grass path approximately 500 metres from the single-track road. The village of Authuille lies on the main D151 road between Albert and [[Thiepval]], where the [[Thiepval Memorial]] to the Missing of the Somme is located. Designed by Sir Herbert Baker, Lonsdale Cemetery stands in a rectangular ground plan covering an area of 4,605 square meters. It is surrounded by a brick wall and incorporates the Cross of Sacrifice, which stands on a low plateau at the end of the central aisle, and the Stone of Remembrance, located next to the entrance.
