Waterloo Elm

The Waterloo Elm was located just south west of the intersection of the sunken land and the Genappe–Brussels main road. It was the Duke of Wellington's command post for much of the Battle of Waterloo (18 June 1815). The tree was killed by souvenir hunters after the battle. It was felled in 1818 and made into furniture, including a chair, made by Thomas Chippendale, the younger, that was presented to George IV and remains in the British Royal Collection.
