POW

Hello, I am currently researching my grandfather, James Edward Love.
He was in The Buffs 7th 1916. From what I understand (given the dates) he was possibly involved in the Battle at Ancre and captured.
I have his POW record but unable to decipher the POW camp he was taken to. Can anyone help please?
Love James 18858 Pte, 7th Buffs A Grandcourt 18-11-16....now comes the part I cant decipher
It possibly reads ?Gewahrschuss 1K ?Eilenbegen /Krglez Bay 6 Cambrai

Does this mean anything to anyone? We believed he was held POW in Poland,
TIA Ingrid
