Oxford Road Cemetery is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission burial ground for the dead of the First World War located near Ypres (now ''Ieper'') in Belgium on the Western Front. The cemetery grounds were assigned to the United Kingdom in perpetuity by King Albert I of Belgium in recognition of the sacrifices made by the British Empire in the defence and liberation of Belgium during the war.〔(First World War ), accessed 19 August 2006〕 ==Foundation==
The cemetery, named after the nickname of a nearby road behind the trenches, was established as two cemeteries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CWGC :: Cemetery Details )〕 The first was laid down in August 1917. The second, nearby, was begun in 1917. After the armistice, battlefield graves were consolidated between the two, creating one enlarged cemetery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wereldoorlog I in de Westhoek – Oxford Road )〕 The cemetery was designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield.〔
