How and where the trenches were built?

By mid- to end-October 1914, the line of trenches stretched from the border of neutral Switzerland, through France and Belgium to the North Sea. The lines of the trenches would move forwards and backwards throughout the war, during offensives (or attacks) by both sides. In some areas, at the beginning of the war, trenches were no more than shallow ditches, or even interconnected shell holes. As the war of movement came to an end and the war of attrition began, the trenches became more and more advanced, both in depth, breadth and forms of construction. Materials commonly used to support the trenches (it's important to note that the majority of trenches were dug into the clay soil of that part of France) were wood, as in the limbs of trees and planks, sheet metal, sand bags, and concrete.
