The Deputy Commissioners Tennis Court - India
This picture was taken in November 2012 in Kohima, Nagaland, India.
On a hillside in North East India, laid out in concrete strips, is the outline of a tennis court; which is on the site of what was the tennis court of the British Deputy Commissioner, whose house stood on the hill above. The tennis court is a memorial to the men who are buried around it, as the hill side is now a Commonwealth War Cemetery; because in April 1944, the hills and indeed the tennis court were a battlefield.
