The North Manchester Battlefield Society was formed in late 2000 by a group of Civil Servants based in Manchester. The first trip was to the Somme and the Normandy Beaches in February 2001. The NMBS have toured many Battlefields of Europe since.

Many pages from Market Garden onwards will be multiple pages and can be viewed when you click the main title on the left.

The trips to The Dambusters sites (2012), Lance's India (2013), Marne/Aisne (2013), Steve's Ypres (2014), Peninsular War - Spain/Portugal (2014), Ardennes (2015) and The Somme 100th Anniversary (2016) will be added soon.

We hope you enjoy the site and would be grateful of any feedback and advising us of any mistakes or errors. We appreciate your feedback.
