Campaign to preserve the view of Hill 60
The City Council of Ieper has granted planning permission for the building of a large "family house" directly opposite the pedestrian entrance to the Hill 60 site, blocking the view of the town of Ypres and the contested land on which so many fought and died.
This goes against Ieper Council's long standing policy:
"...as long as these land parcels remain unbuilt they preserve the vista which the Germans had from Hill 60 and which immediately makes clear why this place was so heavily contested....."

Lt. John Rogers D.C.M. Gordon Highlanders (d.13th June 1918)
My Great Grandfather, John Rogers D.C.M./Gordon Highlanders 1895-1918 died at the 1st Scottish General Hospital, Aberdeen on the 13th June 1918 of "Cut throat Haemorrhage shock". We believe he was assaulted in Callander possibly a week before. We have tried police and court records but have had no success. Nothing was recorded as far as we know. The Hon. Curator of the Tayside Police Museum believes the the Army would have conducted their own investigations but the Police Sergeant stationed at Callander would certainly have had knowledge of the assault. I have contacted the Scottish National Archives and been to the National Archives, Kew but again had no success. Would anybody have any ideas where I could collect information regarding the assault and his hospital record?
Can you help us to add to our records?
