Summary
Manning the barricade and the steep banks of the Nivelles road, the 51st Foot held the furthest most westerly point of Wellington's line at Waterloo. These Peninsula veterans were perfectly suited to this light infantry work - skirmishing and keeping in check any probing French movements west of Hougoumont. This episode looks at some of the extraordinary experiences of the day as well as what became of these men in the decades that followed.
Many thanks to Paul Hayward, Jonathan Durbin, Stuart Lyon, Neil James and Jack Humphrey
