This is one of my favourite cemeteries. To get to it you turn off a country road and drive down a dirt track until you get to a path that leads you to the cemetery. The first time I was here it was in late summer, and the cemetery was completely obscured by fields of corn. In early June it sits amongst the fields in a beautiful pastoral setting. Sadly, in 2026, many of the headstones are faded to the point of illegibility. During our visit in late May 2026, mature oak trees in the cemetery were experiencing a heavy infestation of leaf-feeding caterpillars. Numerous caterpillars were observed wandering across the headstones beneath the trees, while the paths were covered with fallen catkins, leaf fragments, and frass. Such outbreaks are typically seasonal, and healthy oaks often recover by producing a second flush of leaves later in the summer.

Cherisy village was captured by the 18th Division on 3 May 1917, but lost the same night. It then remained in German hands until it was retaken by the Canadian Corps on 27 August 1918. Quebec Cemetery was made by fighting units and those buried there, mainly men of the 22nd and 24th Battalions Canadian Infantry (both from Quebec), were killed between 26 August and 28 September 1918. Quebec Cemetery contains 195 First World War burials, 12 of them unidentified. The cemetery was designed by G H Goldsmith.
