Lochnagar Crater, a few miles east of Albert, France, is the biggest explosives hole on the 1914-18 Western Front. Here is where in 1916 as part of the July Somme offensive, 80,000lbs of explosives destroyed an enemy strongpoint; the noise being heard in London. 93 years on, the scale of the crater is still astonishing.
