Deze site wil een sobere herdenking zijn aan de locale gebeurtenissen tijdens WO I. 104 gelijkaardige blokken in beton zijn in een welbepaald ritme in het perceel gelegd. De blokken vormen getallen die verwijzen naar begin en eind datum van de grote oorlog.Er is gekozen voor beton omdat dit tijdens de oorlog gebruikt werd voor beschermende constructies. het kunstwerk verwijst ook nog naar houten loopbruggen welke tijdens de oorlog natte drassige plekken overbrugden.Het kunstwerk is van de hand van Luc Coeman.
